    Google mot history (wont let me post a link)
    On the direct gov website it lets you search previous history for mots- Not sure it will help you with your issue, but its handy to look at when buying a car

    its common for a seller to lose the advise sheet if issued... it could only be something like tyre nearing limit or a whole host of problems

    i checked the history on-line for my current car and tbh the mot guy i used laughed and said they are not even advisories to him.. so its purely testers opinion

    I only had a 3 month warranty with the car

    Good idea is to take the car in for an MOT BEFORE the end of the 3 months and see if it fails on anything the warranty covers.
  • Wonder if the OP used KwikFit...?

    Also, End of December is 7 and half months ago.

    Why dont people just use Council run MOT centres !!!!!!...?!


    maybe it is because all councils do not actually offer such a service!
