"go to crap fit, they gave me a great deal on a new tyre and found all this stuff dangerously wrong with my car after that dodgy garage under the arches obviously passed it on the MOT without doing any work or even checking anything! They didn't even notice the brakes were about to fail!"
They're not all that bad, several around here are staight-up guys and are very good at what they do.
Also, I've had MOTs done on old heaps at dealers (local Ford AR is often the cheapest around here for MOTs) and never had a problem, only fair failures. Even managed a first time pass on an "L" plate Escort I took them last year, that's practially unheard of!
