the cheapest way i have found when trying to get car ready for mot is take it to mot test station which do free retests if it fails just replace the bits that r needed and u get 10 working days to repair car thats 2weeks as they dont include weekends

it has to be its vosa who set standards not the garage themselves same as they cannot charge for a retest within the 10 day period, nor can they hit you with "but you too it off the property" its still free retest

As long as there's no sharp (dangerous) parts on the bumper then you're ok Needs to be secure and not split, but even that can be gaffa taped. Sounds to me like you just need to fit the starter, take it in for the trst, then fix the things it fails on. Simples and you get 10 days to do it in free. Fact
Torsion bar reduction is ballocks unless you've gone way too high and have your lights in the sky like Rick said. In which case it's your fault anyway

I'll have to ask about them, I admit, the torsions are high but not ridiculously. He says its putting stress on the joints

Hope it doesn't fail on much then, the time it's taking to fit a starter motor he'll need 10 weeks

Re test fees are down to garage if you remove ie they dont get the work.The one i use charges £35.50 for the test and doesnt charge for re test.I never bother to check anything prior to mot they just give me a list of jobs to do it take it back and doesnt cost a penny
