I’ve been driving and owned a car since 1992 and 1994 respectively but in that time I’ve only owned a new car twice, and then it only stayed new for a relatively short period of time. MOTs are a hassle of car ownership that is often something you can do without but if you follow a checklist beforehand, like this one that motorparks.co.uk have prepared will stop the stupid fails and the mandatory (panic and) retest.
I’ve had a couple of MOT test failures- one for a license plate, the other for tyres, and the amount of running around like a looby I could have avoided has made me do my home work subsequently…
