Thanks BM

It passed with 2 advisories

N/S/F brake slightly binding
Both wiper arm hinging pins worn.

Not having any knowledge of cars before, i'm glad it got through. It's amazing what you can do by searching the forum for the experts advice when something like this comes up.

Many thanks to you all. :D :D :D

Well done, the wiper arm pins is a new one but I can see the reasoning and it must have been a thorough MOT which is good.

I must agree, well done, first of many to come!!

Must admit the wiper advisory is a new one to me - will be checking mine in the morning if it stops raining!

I think the tester said I wasn't getting the full sweep of the blade because there was play on the hinging pins
