> Second stupid Item Front seat belts not rewinding... Its static seat belts !!
Bloody hell, that's nothing short of gross incompetance. That MOT tester shouldn't have a licence!
I mean "ignorance" of the rules, such as from what date certain items were required, is bad enough, but inability to recognise the
difference between a fixed belt and an inertia reel is blatant lack of basic mechanical knowledge (or even common sense).
As for the mud of the springs, well, what can I say? It's stupidity beyond belief.
How can such a person possibly be qualified to judge a vehicles roadworthiness.
