no cause my mate tests my car and i know he is spot on. If there was something really wrong with it he would properly fail it.

didnt think mine would pass as its been off the road 3 1/2 years but it did!!! Had to have a retest but that was only cos of rear drivers caliper not working which i replaced. Theres a few bits that will be better being replaced etc but nothing thats a serious problem!!
