Title: SWMBO Ford Focus MOT time!
Post by: Crazycarzowner on 19 July 2011, 13:54:50
Just got back from the testing station, preparing for the worst (not touched for 12 months, never mind prep'd for MOT) and.............IT PASSED!!!! :o :o :o :o :o ;D

It sorta failed Number plate bulbs  :-[ :-[ :-[ school boy error. But they were good enough to change em.
Also got a list of advisories 7 in total  :o
Discs lipped, slight corrosion on brake pipes, rear tyre 2mm, exhaust corrosion and slight play in bushes. But on the whole I'm quite impressed.
AND I've just learned that they have full wheel geometary equipment facilities and knew what I was on about when I asked about Omegas & their complicated camber settings!  :) :) :)

RESULT!!!

Cheers for that Jimbob, although I'm inclined to trust this garage as I've used em for quite a while now. The owner really does know his stuff as in his spare time he races cars and sets em up for all kinds of track days races etc. He also uses the same equipment as Nigel too. Apart from that he's only a 5 minute walk from my house  :)
