Only thing is they might pick up on more things that are borderline, which may be advisory at any other station.

Really cant go wrong for £27, and do the repairs yourself as Lewy said.

Why the f**k not?

12mths ticket for £27, the rest of the work (which you should know about) is done by you, no?


This.

A MOT tester is not a mechanic, therefore they will not be touching you car will they.

Blinkers. Off.

The only concern id have is at that price there probably looking for work. I do appreciate theres a manual to follow but some of has to be down to the testers discretion.
