MOT Incorrect mileage. Big Issue or leave it ?

Nonsense. Testing centre can only change within 28 days.
After that it’s s DVSA and their requirements are ludicrous. The mileage on my car is still lower than the recorded mileage 8 months after the test (which is when I noticed as the discrepancy was a few thousand, not 10s of thousands). They won’t change the recorded mileage.
They said they will only accept an emissions test or service invoice from within +/- 1 day of the test.
So if you don’t happen to have services and MOT aligned or the garage just copies their error, you’re out of luck. I typically use a trusted MOT centre as I don’t trust servicing garages not to “find” items (experience).
