Trouble With Mot's ???

Hi, maybe this is a bit of a silly question but as anyone ever had any trouble passing an MOT cos their car was too low, the reason i ask this is cos the last time i had my MOT my veilside front end only just cleared the rollers that they check the breaks and stuff. the guy who did the MOT reckoned he's had to turn boy racers away cos their cars were too low.

and now ive had veilside sideskirts and im a bit worried it wont fit on the rollers.

plus whats the crack with MOT prices these days they've doubled in price at my 2 local garages and teir not doin free re-tests no wonder theirs so many cars with no MOT on the road.

Cheers Si

    find a garage with a plate brake tester - ie. me!! :D

     

    with ref to prices, VOSA set the prices, currently £44.15, they usually only increase a couple of pounds every year. if theyve doubled near you then its prob cos the garages were in a discount war!! many garages have been fighting to get the fee set by VOSA as being compulsory, a set fee nationwide would be far better IMO.

    at £44.15 for an MOT, & an MOT taking around an hour now it actually costs us money at our garage to test a car!!

    retests again have always been chargeable, except for a small list of minor items. a retest once taken away *should* (must!) be a FULL test again! many garages used to & still do free retests however!
