There are some very good MOT testers out there - if you find one then keep hold of them.

Bloke on the MG forum is one of those from the DVSA who checks up on MOT stations - some right horror stories! Unfortunately the dodgy ones tarnish the reputation of the good ones.

They're also stuck between a rock and a hardplace - I've been lucky where I've built a relationship with testers over the years, they trust me and my work, and they've been happy to issue a pass with the 'get that sorted when you get home'. Perfect for me, but technically they've 'broken the rules' and not recorded a fault.
