The MOT test will be exactly the same wherever you go. Like you said though maybe the garage is trying to "pull a fast one" and do work that isnt required?

Beg to differ on this.... The MOT at any garage is only as good as the tester!!

On paper its the same, in life its not. you get some very strick testers and some lenient :smiley:
