Well, i expected it to fail, what i didnt expect was it to fail on the things it did lol

 

1. head light on passenger side not illuminating (i knew about this anyway as i didn't get time to change the bulb)

2. horn not loud enough to be heard by other road users lol

3. excessive corrosion to seat belt anchorage point on drivers seat

4. excessive corrosion to seat belt anchorage point on passenger seat,

5. excessive smoke of any color.

6. number plate bulb failed to illuminate (oops stupid not to check that)

7. front offside brake binding

8. front near side brake binding.

 

And two other points that i cant remember at the moment, but I'm getting a quote for the work that i have to go back for at 2pm will grab the sheet as well. RGS have said the turbo has blown, so will defo need to get them swapped over.

 

had some advisories as well

 

rear bushes worn but not to the point of excessive play.

rear brake pads waring too thin

rear tires close to legal limit

brake pipes have corrosion.

 

all in all, not to bad really lol.

nope, and i cant find on that site where it says binding is a cause for failure in brakes.

Section 2 - reason for rejection 2.a ;)

they dont do MOT,s at zedworld . but they will give everything a good check . i enquired with them about mine . they do the work and use a tester that is familiar with zeds

FAO ian, you have a pm

ok found out what they where on about when the MOT said

 

Offside / nearside seatbelt anchorage point (inner sill) excessively corroded.

 

Its the crushed sill area near the front wheel arch. was under the car today to wd40 the bolts, and if you look from exhaust out, you can see it, not very big, but obvious enough to fail the MOT.

 

should come to my mot guy, hes got one hell of a sense of humour.....

 

I'll have to find out an old advisory note for my 1978 fiesta...
