How does one get free brakes?

My MOT is due this week, I shall go document the damage Ive done to my car since I got it.

The wrap I put on is coming off, going to book my mot for Thursday. Get the light fixed and new tires IF theres nothing else major need doing. Otherwise I might aswell sink the money into a better car.

One gets free brakes by knowing the right people.

That rear light will fail an MOT.

To be honest, any car you have will need money spending on it. If you bought a different car, chances are it would need something doing to it.

Better the devil you know and all that.

In fact, if I were a cop, I'd pull you over for that rear light. Get it fixed. You shouldn't be waiting for your MOT to fix these things.

Bear in mind that any time you step on the brakes or indicate, it's going to look like you've put it in reverse because the light will be white.

Funny thing is, many cops have driven behind me since and done nothing.

The reason I've waited is because there might be a problem with the CAT that cost £300 to repair according to quickfit, he put my car in the air and showed me, but he said i'd have 6 weeks to get it fixed, its been 5 months.

Anywho, if it turns out its just the light that needs fixing, ill get it fixed, if its alot more, its scrapped.

Booked in for Saturday

The reason Kwik Fit will try and sell you a cat is that they make a lot of markup on them, and they can sell yours as scrap platinum for about £50. They will try it on with anyone running a fleet car or anyone that looks like they have no clue about cars and a wallet full of cash. In reality there's probably not a lot wrong with it other than the plates inside have become dislodged.

If it fails, I think you have a few days to get it fixed and have a re-test. Let me know what it fails on and I might be able to sort you out. A rear light isn't a problem.

Hmm, the I'll see if I can get a picture of what he showed me was wrong with it, seemed convincing when he compared it to one that wasn't about to break. Thanks for the offer to, might take you up on it

Thats the thing though, he told me to scrap the car and not get it fixed!

It's not like he'd have been making money off me, because I doubt kwik fit even offer a scrap service.

No, he knows damn well that you'll be so shocked by his serious diagnosis that you have no choice but to get your pride and joy fixed.

Well he did say that it could break anytime (after 6 weeks, its been alot longer)...BUT is there a chance it can break at any time now?

Should I be considering getting it fixed?

1) That's not the cat, that's a bit of flexi.
2) It's not a problem.
3) "Fixed" will mean replacement, and that means expense.
4) Jack says it's fine, so it's fine. And you know how anal I am about cars and doing things right.

I will admit I do enjoy the smell of gas. I also like the smell of fresh pavement. Smells kinda minty.
