Ah, the pain that is the MoT.. have a feeling mine'll fail on a CV boot next year, there was a tiny, near invisible split in it when I refitted it a couple of weeks ago, I bet that'll grow by the MoT. Think I'll get a mechanic to do that though, I really dispise anything to do with CV joints now..
Anyway, glad it was only minor stuff

Mines gunna fail on cv boot too seen as though the inner arch is covered in grease
And i reckon one of my headlights aint adjusted right, as other drivers flash me at night like i have full beam on. (i press the full beam switch when they flash now and blind them for being so interfearing)

Hah, that's the way to do it
I've got to remember to point my fogs upwards and remember to take the covers off at night, give people who flash me a real piece of my mind
Think I'll fail on headlight adjustment as well, I fitted the twin spot grille myself so the adjustment's miles out. Not as bad as when I got it, when I could actually point one of my headlights in the upstairs window of a house as I drove past, but still pretty bad
