Took my car into my local vauxhall dealer this morning for an MOT is passed on everything except my nice custom made exhaust the fcukers turn round and said it was to loud :mad: , so i took my car back to the shop that made me exhaust they turned round and told me that there was no law on how loud the exhaust can be, so they sent me to another MOT station and the car passed no problem and as an added insult bloody vauxhall dealer damaged me car as well.
