Sounds like they might have finished a bush off  on the brake tester or something like that.

Quite possible re the bush!
the whine is interesting cos it only happens in fifth gear and has only startred since the Mot a few days ago. Is fifth high up in the box, i am hoping it might just need some oil?
Cheers

Cause fo the problem turned out to be a balljoint. Think it just gave up the ghost at mot time. Poss car sitting about for 9 months hasn't helped.
