tonight i just asked a different mot center how long i will get to fix up the older run around car and they told me 10 working days!

what a difference between 2 garages for the same bit of paper that prooves nothing!

I am sure they fail most cars on the wipers! i know the wife would have payed the ford garrage a small fortune as she believes everything they say......well they know best they are Ford she would say!


my wiper had definately had it .
not that it made any difference to me, but on the wall of the garage I went to, it said you would not be charged for another mot as long as you took it back before the end of the next working day . TOTAL COST TO ME--- MOT ----GOOD QUALITY TYRE --- NEW WIPER BLADE--- AND THE WHEEL BALANCED -- £78.10
