it will fail when the MOT tester goes to lean on it and slips off from all the wax.
Should pass I think

Mine passed its 1st MOT, no advisories and the MOT didn't even cost me anything as I had it done at Audi
As said its a 3 year old car... should be fine. I had mine done a couple of weeks early so that if anything was wrong it'd be fixed on the warranty.

Yeah but we run tuned cars with overnight parts from Japan fitted so nothing is ever straight forward
