KADVR6 0 Posted March 18, 2005 got my car booked into volkswagon for its first MOT tomorrow since it has been in my possesion, so i now find out if i bought a shed or a good one :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 18, 2005 At least it'll pass the brake test with the 288s :D Nah it should be fine mate.... will be something minor if it does fail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted March 18, 2005 Corrado's are generally always good on the MOT.. if they spotlight anything, its usually brake lines for some reason :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 18, 2005 Yeah they corrode...espeically the rear ones where there is no heat to dry them out. Vince replaced all mine last year and it's an axle down bar steward of a job - but it's done now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted March 18, 2005 very true kev, it wont fail on the front brakes. if anything they will fail it for the brakes being too good?? :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted March 19, 2005 b******s failed the mot, only 2 things though, the drivers seat needs new plastic guides and apparently the rear discs have accesive scoring?? but they look ok to me. could be vw being picky though :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billinjah 0 Posted March 19, 2005 plastic guides a few pounds from vw and disks are 48 a pair inc vat and an hours job that aint bad for an mot! just imagine if you were a ford driver youd be selling the cat the misses to fix everything! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
godskitchen 0 Posted March 19, 2005 Any reason you used VW for the MOT? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted March 20, 2005 well there are loads of dodgy garages out there, so i thought take it to vw for its first mot that i have had to do, at least that way it gets looked at properly, on the plus side it looks like i bought a good corrado :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
