gamezone07 Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 thanks, its a quick job, I just realised my MOT was due, I have looked at what is required, there is an issue with the knob that operates the front seat, to level up, etc, its fell off, with that affect it, also a tiny bit of rust on the back near the window. Apart from that it is structurally and fwics mechanically sound, lots of work done recently, new clutch, brake pads, spring coils, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeh Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Nothing youve mentioned should cause a fail. I think youre ok but if your unsure just ring the MOT centre and ask. I did this (vaux tyres was the centre i used) when i wanted to know if something (cant recall what) would cause a fail. They told me it would be fine and it was.

ivan edake Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Non working Rear wiper isnt a fail. A non working rear wiper can be a fail,if it's fitted it has to be working.Just remove the wiper arm and blade,a rear wiper is not required by law.

PeteMorris Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I'd check all your bulbs are working if I were you....any bulb that isn't working (on the outside) is a fail...It's a shame to have a failure for the sake of a bulb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then what you do is take it to a place who arent after ripping you off and would tell you its broken but would replace it and not fail you then just charge you for the bulb.
