You have to do them twice LOL

, first to make sure that they are legal to be driven while checking the suspension bounce test, then check again after to ensure they are still legal to issue a test certificate LOL

Interesting point phaetonott. Assuming you carried it out last, what would the situation be if you had to carry out a deaccelerometer test and, for example, an extream end of a spring broke that you didn't notice or hear? Quite possible bearing in mind the state of the roads today.

Our Yoof talked me into having a quick looky at his brakes. handbrake lever came to top, no reserve and no brake effort. r/n/s wheel off found 6 week old pagid shoe to have hanbrake lever pin/rivet snapped.
So i called Pagig not fit to burn, made a pin from scrap box.
While I was doing it his mates came round, they were laughing and calling him KEN. Must be some yoof thing I thought.
NOW I realise..... KEN BLOCK handbrake!!!! Wait till I get him tomoz.
