Cheap MOT's from your council

i was stuck and had forgotten to get my old car tested by a day i think, so rang the local garage and they said bring it down, they found a few things wrong with it, then said the mot would be 57 quid with free retest within 7 days, nearly belted him when i went to pick it up, but then i thought i should have asked price before hand and chose not to throttle him till he went blue

on a lighter note, one of the garages is just down from my mums house in stafford, a very good find, i'll tell my dad, absolutley loaded but tight as a gnats chuff and always trying to save a penney or two!! made 160k buying northern rock shares and wouldnt lend me 600 quid for a cheap runabout car!!

I think I've possibly got the best deal I've had thus far, I can ring up with 24 hours notice and get an MOT for a snip under £25, bulbs are replaced FOC and so far, the golf's never once failed.

So, sub-market rate price, replacement bulbs, no failures as yet....
