Hi guys, seeking your thought and views please.
Car MOT is due in few weeks and last year Advisory was change of front and rear disc breaks, showing slight sign of rust, due to lack of usage (as I do below 1k miles a year), also advisory that air con was not cold enough although I remember when I was buying the car the speech then was, well it would not be colder than this as it is an old car after all!!
So I get a slight feeling that maybe MOT garage is a bit over picky, may be it just generates customers to next door garage.
My question is, can I take the car to local garage earlier and see if passes MOT? I guess my question is, whilst keeping the same garage to service the car if I changed the garage that MOT's the car would that affect when it comes to selling it? Would it be a concern to a buyer?
Secondly, using an Indy, what should I expect to pay for front disk brakes? What for rear disc brakes inc. parts, labour and VAT please? I am just a bit careful not ending up replacing these as they will start to rust again due to minimum usage and rather to change them before I want to sell it in couple of years or so. Any thoughts please?
