Hi,
I took my 1993/L Cinquecento for a MOT and full service today at my local garage, I normally take it to the garage near my parents house 100 miles away.
However it failed its MOT and it needed three new tyres and a new drive shaft boot kit. The MOT fail certificate proved this, so I don't think the garage were having me on. It was done at a MOT test station separate to the garage. It passed its MOT second time round.
The summary of the receipt is below, just wondered if it seems a lot, or its normal.
Work Done:
Parts Supplied:
Subtotal: £321.32
VAT: £56.20
MOT: £40.00
TOTAL: £417.52 !!!!!!!
I am thinking the Forte treatments were a bit over the top, I think if this happens again I will scrap the car!
