Same as the guy I take my vehicles to, he goes through the test and if there's a failure, he points out what I need to do to get it to pass, I go away and get it sorted, go back and show him it's been done, then I pay for the test and he issues the certificate with the date that I previously brought the vehicle to him, on it.

he cant issue a backdated mot so he probably passes it and you come back to him to collect the certificate when the work has been done.

Pop next time take it to MOT's Only Park Road Shirley, as the name suggest they only do MOTS so don't wont to earn extra on doing any work. I always like the idea that theres no incentive to fail to get the extra work ! mine went in 3/4hr latter 13months MOT

They didn't on mine. As Richard said, they have to be okay if they're fitted, but they can't say bugger all if they are not.

What about the spare wheel? Mines in the shed!!! I just bought a new clio 197 and instead of a spare wheel they give you a can of spray stuff to put into a punctured tyre. Somethin about saving weight!!
So do you need a spare for an MOT?

[stormforce]

if its there it has to be legal,they can't check what isn't there
