Appeal day coming fail a 05 corsa on broken front coil spring and tyre tread depth less than 1.6 mm in primary tread with tread wear indictor the tyre was perrished as well car came back today with new coil spring fitted and pair of new tyres so retested and put a pass certificate on car now this guy was not happy about the tyre and said the old tyres were in boot and should not have failed but if they were ok why change them ? And he wanted to appeal the site manage looked a tyres and said i was right to fail the tyre
This was not happy so i printed off a vt17 off vts device we know the car is not in same condition when i issued a vt 32 let you know what the out is

I won't take an appeal for tyres unless I've seen the car immediately after the test ie 5 minutes after issue of the paperwork and the car is still on site. The tyre and spring have been replaced so the car is not in the same condition as failed. The appeal is going nowhere.

If I was to agree with you, that would make us both wrong !
