Passed its MOT :)
not too impressed with a Honda main dealer sending me away with an advisory for a non working number plate light though! Why not just fix it and put £2 on the bill!

Because to fit it would have invoked a labour charge and at Honda main dealer prices there's no way the bill would have been £2Tom192 wrote:not too impressed with a Honda main dealer sending me away with an advisory for a non working number plate light though!

So giving it a more positive spin, they've done you a favour by not fitting it
Did they check emissions...?

Re: Passed its MOT :)
If you want to check an MOT use this website.
https://www.check-mot.service.gov.uk
You should have got a pass certificate if it passed.

Re: Passed its MOT :)
I have been given the normal DVLA printout that shows when your next MOT is but not the emission readings one, guessings its not checked?

Re: Passed its MOT :)
No mention of emissions in the handbook Alibally linked to.
