:(
both side light bulbs blown on way there ? straight but true as i checked they last night
1 number plate not a bright as the other
front brake hoses too long ( but i order them brand new for a renault 5 ?
they do not rub on the wheels and clipped to the shoch to keep them out the way


not bad just silly but and picky things:(

they cant fail a brake hose for being 2 long!!!unless it rubs on something or its soooo long its wrapped round the strut twice!!!!!!!!
and as long as ur number plate is not rotten and can b read clearly thats ok 2!!!(providing its the wright colour and got the right lerrering and spacing and stuff)!!

TBH i would rather fail on thing like that... + plus it show the examiner is pretty anal about his car's....

Easy fix's & should be a decent MOT.... Better than handing over £20 saying "oh i will sort out that rust, etc..."
