yeah, it is, it failed on the headlights being on the piss, and the p/s fluid tank being leaky
and no, i'm not gonna buy another corsa, well, not a B anyway

the tester said if i cleaned up the manky oil round the tank he'd pass it, so i did, and he still failed it, and i told him i normally have LHD lights on the front, and he said whack them in and stick some tape on them so the beam pattern is flat, and doesnt kick up either side
but to be honest, i only wanted the certificate so i could drive it a few more weeks til i sort my new car out, and i was gonna keep it as a project, but i cant be arsed now

You're an idiot - you won't sell.
PAS tank and headlamps can be yours for around £40 from a scrap yard.
Give Eddie at call @ VPSC.
