The whole mob at Andy Oils are good guys.

My brother, Marcus, does body repair down there and most of the others I've known for some time.

They'll be fair with you, Mate. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/up.gif)

They failed it, for no side repeaters - boooo (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/down.gif)

and for front middle seat which cannot be secured in an upright position. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/down.gif)


last time I go there.


Spoken to Mildenhall AC, they will do my mot for free, as they did the SVA in Feb. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/rock.gif)

Thanks chap, guess it serve's me right for not listening to you guys, and not going to Andy's oil in Fenny.


From speaking to a few people, appears I got done by a jobsworth, 2 other ram owners I spoke to, don't have side repeaters either.

guess us yank owners need to avoid the fast fit places (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/smirk.gif)

Also remember that with the new computerized MOT system now being over one year old, all the details of your old MOT and the recent failure are availble within two seconds to any suitable camera equipped police car (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/shame.gif)
Just worth being in mind in case you current MOT expires before you can get it re-tested (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/wink.gif)

Yep, also, when you got for your next MOT, they look up all the advisory items from the last year and check they been sorted.

I used to take my motors to a garage in Redhill as they were yank friendly and did all Dream Cars stuff when i was working. Might try Andy Oils my self now. Truck is due in May and the 56 Caddy in August.
