The failure cert says it was a failed numberplate bulb. Only the single failure recorded.

Bloody useless garage ... was it the same place that failed the last one over the airfreshner ??

Any decent place would have changed the bulb and passed it.

What has happened to "common sense" ?? or are they all looking to get some sort of computerised "statistic" that they fail x % ??  Bloody pointless.

I suspect its a stat - they fitted a bulb and immediately passed it.

One of the failures on mine was the number plate bulb, despite the fact that my reversing light doesn't work (knackered switch), which makes things seem even more stupid...
