   Hi just found out my mot failed. Headlights were out although i lined them up fine. Problem with the exhaust mount they said 10 pound for them 2 things does that sound about right ? Also theres somethin wrong with the tailgate but they are unsure what it is at the moment any ideas on that on what it might be. thanks

   lol he said he didnt quite know yet whats wrong with it just wanted some ideas of wat it could be. 10 pound i know dosnt sound alot but the exhaust got replaced not that long ago so there shouldnt be anything wrong with it and also me and my step dad did the lights.

   if he doesn't have a clue, the question that pops into my head is do they even know what their doing? I'd question them on that.
