failed its test on number of things mainly bulbs washer jets etc
but it failed its emissions badly CO was 0.600% wen the limit is 0.300% 
as did HC reading aswell the mot tester said it was asif the CAT had been smashed out 
the previous owner said it had a "sports" cat lol! maybe his idea of a sports cat and mine are different thngs eh
and it does sound rattly or tinney when you put your foot down so anyone who has a cat for a corsa or just a cat i could weld on to get it through its test would be great and how much you want for it let me know thanks very muchly
