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

My dad's mate who's an mot tester said that I'll need to replace the rear bumper and wind down the torsions by half an inch.

stinka · 25-11-2012, 23:37
