I agree with Lincolnlad, I was told a few years ago that if I left my bald tyred spae wheel in the car they would fail it, if I took it out they would have nothing to fail.

On a side note, my everyday car was due for mot and insurance at the start of Feb, i insured with Kwikfit (the cheapest I found) and got a free MOT as well. I booked it in and they failed it on the rear discs and pads, then quoted me £263.

I had got a quote the day before as I knew they were ready for £55 from the local factors.

I immediately took it half a mile down the road to a place that do loads of trade mots every day and after paying £40 within an hr I had a new MOT.

a lot of this MOT stuff is rubbish and it is in the opinion of the tester to pass or fail, not wishing to dismiss safety here but you get my drift.
