Not me....... Thats for sure!
Only slight problems though
There is excess play in the Near side front track rod
Rear brakes do not rise and fall at same rate
And all the brake hoses are split
Ohhh not to mention the chassis is bent.
SO yeah, like i said.........Not much wrong

Yeah, Not a fail as such.......They alerted me to this, but i already knew.
It's all safe, as its ben repaired some time ago......They have to by law tell me it has been fixed, or was damaged even if its a pass.

Put it on a jig, its actually quite easy to straighten a bent chassis.

Probably saw the strengening plate which is welded to it.
Don't forget in an MOT centre they raise the car off the floor (or drive over a pit) to inspect the underside.

That's a good idea ollie, It is all straightened out though.
Anyway, He said that the car is in no way dangerous to drive, if anything it's the same as it was when it was brand new.
