Mistyped 60 or mileage adjustment… seeing as the next year is 90 something definitely a mistype,

This, simple typographical error on entry.

Definitely a fat-fingered typo comparing it to the next MOT

Compare it to the service records.

There's a delicate soul on another thread on here who would be driven to suicide at such a mis-type. Either that, or he would rain down the Gods of Compensayshun on the garage who made the mistake.

My tester accidently put the wrong mileage on a ticket, i didn't notice until the following year - when it was too late to change.
You would think the MOT portal would warn the tester that the mileage they just entered is less than it was last time and do a "are you sure?"

Are you seriously expecting a Govt IT application to have a useful feature like that? laugh quick, give that man a job.
