Had my MOT retest this morning, failed first time due to headlamp aim even though I already sorted it, so paid them to sort that then got 12 months MOT finally
Going to get suspension fitted back on and a new exhaust before PVS hopefully

They failed it on the headlight aim? If thats all it needed they should have adjusted it to make it pass Hope they didnt charge you a retest fee?
