Always remember it's minimum standard and not service standard and really only worth anything the Pass that is on the day of the Test.Well the car passed the MOT today but really need to sort out rear brakes & parking brake
Lucky I have a good MOT centre who i trustI'm facing this at the moment. I was tempted to take it to my usual place, but its a bit back street. Not sure I'd get the car in there, also concerned they might underestimate the power and drive it into a wall !!
Trying to find somewhere else in North London, used to "special" cars so won't get overly excited.
I remember when you could take your car in for an MOT and you could watch them doing it. Booked in for 10:15, done at 10: 15. One garage I used to go to had a waiting area where you watched through a large window, while having a drink.I'm facing this at the moment.

It’s a requirement for all MOT stations to have a viewing area
At my local one its just a sign in the corner near the roller shutter door...It’s a requirement for all MOT stations to have a viewing area

Can still do exactly that with my local MOT station. Have a large viewing window in front of the test area and they let me come and look over the underside whilst it’s on the ramp. Having a good relationship with your tester is a godsend!I remember when you could take your car in for an MOT and you could watch them doing it. Booked in for 10:15, done at 10: 15.

It does have some superficial damage to perspex screen cover and maybe the aluminium shell (still works perfectly) but doesn't matter as I have one good one and one broken one - so I will hopefully end up with two proper ones...Bloody ****!
