Testers like the fella/fellette above need pulling up on their judgements. 'Chassis rails corroding very very bad but was not excessive enough to fail'? Jeez. 100% agree. I think the issue is that a lot of testers are looking at what could develop into a problem soon, rather than what they're supposed to be checking - defects present at the time of test. It's like failing brake pads because they aren't quite bad enough but they won't last until next year. Or a tyre because it's on 1.7mm.. yes, it should be replaced but that's not a valid MOT concern. That's what advisories are for. A lot of testers just don't know the manual adequately, I can only assume they glaze over at the annual refresher course because I'm forever seeing testers bicker with eachother quoting various sections of the test manual over what is and isn't a fail. I've lost count of how many 51 plate cars for example I've seen failed for an EML light For example, tyre fitting isn't a fail anymore unless in the case of an arrow of direction. Fitted inside facing out is just a P+A but I guarantee if you went on Facebook you'd find two testers bickering about it somewhere! All they needed to do in this case is put (xyz) mounting prescribed area corroded, but not excessive or whatever the wording would have been in 2011 and that's all bases covered Seeing "undertray fitted" really pisses me off. Very divisive opinion though! I wish DVSA would implement a test condition note section or something where such things could be noted rather than logging it as an advisory. Being accompanied by "monitor and repair if necessary" is just daft Bamboocarman, colino, Justwatching and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still drives tho m9 just needs gearbox service m8 etc Seems fairly innocent, until.. Yeah, it would appear that the wing has gone missing. Not even mentioned 😂 Can't have shit in Feltham 😂 I loved these Picassos when they first came out. A huge improvement over the old shape one that stayed on for a further 3 years. I thought they looked like nothing else at the time. But most of the ones I see in my area nowadays are sadly fucked. RoverFolkUs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they're definitely a lot more modern and up to date, also very comfortable. But I can't fault my Xsara Picasso either, I think they've always been comfortable and capable cars as well. The Xsara being a little bit too quirky for its own good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
