I replaced the dash on my Mondeo with 300,000+ miles on it. At the first pit after that the tester said 'only 40,000 miles?', I told him about the dash change and the actual mileage was around 300k - new pit certificate shows mileage as,,,,,40,000 ! #-o


MOT's now carry/include all test mileages held by VOSA

Surely an engine can fail at 50,000 miles as well as 200,000 miles. What's the problem?


at 50K they dont care

at 200k+ they might refuse a plate, as it could show the vehicle is past its sell by date


You'd need to be a mug to tell 'em :roll:
