3.0si MOT - passed with reservations

[dhobbs]

Another year and another MOT passed. I was a nervous wreck beforehand but now all relaxed and grateful.

This is annoying.
The last MOT for our Z4 I told the guys that the rear tyres were getting low and they would be replaced soon.
They were put down as an advisory with 3mm left on them which will always show on an MOT check.

Why would you give a monkeys about 3mm tyre tread listed on an MOT history?

:lol: This was 2 years ago almost.
Its annoying because it doesnt need to be there. And the fact I told them they were getting low they didnt need to advise me on it.

Advisories are a waste of time generally, unless it's something definitive.

I wholeheartedly disagree; the amount of effort to get a car through an MOT, without advisories, shows any prospective buyer that you've done absolutely everything to ensure your car is in the best possible condition it can be in.

Someone that leaves advisories, from year to year, or doesn't bother spending £20 on a new set of pads is clearly advertising, to me at least, the complete opposite.
