MOT testers are not allowed to remove ANY panels, it could be argued that they should not remove the cover about the brake master cylinder to check the fluid level as well!

bit worried about the slicks

Mines in at the end of the month for its MOT, 36K service, Optimisation, post track inspection and hard drive swap. Got to stay in a hotel overnight as one day is not enough!

As Arcam said, they are not allowed to remove any trim, panels etc...

As for slicks... only a problem if under 1.6mm.

Even 888s pass no problem with the legal requirement of tread.

Ed where are you taking it? Take it to I and K Brown by the church. Should have no problems.

Mines booked for end of March. Gives me some time to sort anything that may need doing (I don't expect anything will need doing)
