Glad your AVR experience wasn`t too stressful mate. :D
Its nice isn`t it to have your car tested buy someone actually human with common sense and not a jobsworth dick!
Don`t get me wrong if they find a fail its a fail. Its the little things like headlight adjustment. Many places ive used in the past will produce a failure for out of line headlights (quite right its a fail) But then charge for adjustment and/or re-test. Those guys will most of the time do it f.o.c if thats all thats wrong rather than be a dick and send you off with a fail when mostly its a 30 second job to adjust!

It was such a breeze. As you do you always have some sort of reserve about places you've never been too, but when I called and booked and a receptionist answered the phone I actually grinned. :D Proper place. :thumbs: I know what you mean, they fitted another rear plate bulb because it blew when they tested it and just fitted another one there and then to save failing unnecessarily. :hurray:
