MOT looming.....do you guys know what the car is likely to get picked up on - not that I'm expecting you to see the condition of my car - but are there any areas I would be well advised to check before taking it to the test station?

Also are there any 'TVR friendly' garages in the Richmond area (my handbrake doesnt work...)

Chassis especially outriggers, brakes, all lights, suspension, exhaust, windscreen wipers and washer jets... thats should cover most things

The excessive noise is taken as "when compared with a car of similar type so its mainly subjective, at the testers discretion.
