Hi all,I'll second that Nev,the sooner they fix the m.o.t.price the better.I sub-contract all my m.o.t.'s and always charge FULL price.I do on average 30 tests a month and don't get any complaints or queries,all my customers know they get an honest test and quite often they pass needing no work at all.I still get a few calls though from the un-educated saying the guy down the road does them for £20 or it's free with a full service for £50! Well my answer to that is boll****,they can't possibly be doing the job properly and it most probably will fail on something.If it's an old car there'll be a list and if it's fairly new your "headlights needed adjusting but thats only £20".After all with the amount of cars on the road today there's plenty of business for everyone. I think if they do fix it people will then choose a garage that gives them good service and honesty.That's all people want really. Cheers John
