just on my way down to have a look
they've told me it failed on rear tyres, one inside edge bald, the others got a crack in the sidewall, and also rear discs pitted and rear brakes unbalanced.
they've quoted £770 inc. service (own products)
im assuming theres more to it for that price??
what do you guys think??

Gutted mate, you need to get the exact list really

sounds like you only need two tyres and rear discs

get a list of what its failed on when does the MOT run out ?

you can get discs and pads on ebay cheap enough if your a dab handy with a socket set you can do the rears yourself as for the tyres about 210 for the pair from kwickfit

Where have you had the MOT done ?

it is just rear discs, pads, and rear tyres, ill post the full list later on with prices, got 10 days for a re-rest
unfortunately, i used formula one in chelmsford, wont be going there again
as i said, £770 does include service and MOT but those two are £146 combined
