What to check before the MOT

Then check not working and horseshoe locking device incorrectly fitted, the next two most common reasons.
The most common advisory is has a serious fluid leak (9.5% of all tests) - not a failure, but money you will spend sooner or later.
Average recorded mileage at test is 8,641 miles, which is the number to compare any advert against.
