How did your depos fail the mot? Is it because the black bit isnt a good enough reflector? Handbrake cables common fail :/ Such a pain! Was that wheel baring the one that you had to repair? Whens its re test?

wtf! where do you get your car mot'd? thats unreal! why does your boot popper come into it? dont need to get into the boot to pass an mot, as for the mhw's thats just being picky!! down to them not being reflective? and what have they failed on the depos?! only thing that is a real problem is the bearing and handbrake cable! please say you didnt get it mot'd at somewhere like kwik fit?

black bit is irrelivent, only thing they can be failed on is the headlight aim! my car recently failed on frayed handbrake cable, mhw's i know are a fail, real picky tbh! we always get customers come to us with a massive list of reasons it has failed and half of them are utter bullshit!

Oooo thats annoying! As seans said seems a pretty picky garage as theyve failed you on stuff that doesnt have to be checked for an mot (Not that i know as much as he does in this field)

Sean - Yer i heard that some people have has issues with them as the silver reflector inside guides the beam and when painted black its more dispersed! :/
