Are these required for MOT?

NeilT · Feb 7, 2011

MOT due in a couple of weeks and in true Disco style a few things don't work. Can anyone please confirm whether any of these are an MOT fail.

1. Passenger window doesn't open.
2. Headlamp washers don't work.
3. Rear passenger door can't be opened from outside.

I have had the parts to fix 1 & 3 for a month but just not getting the time and so I thought I would send car in as is but not if any of these were a fail.

Thank you for any help

Sorry about that did it wrong was rushing

is it the door lock sticking causing the door not to open ?

If so unlock car, leave it unlocked, door will then open, = Mot pass !

Is your steering box leaking ?
Rust inner arches, sills, boot floor ?

I think your little list might be the least of your worries on a disco

lol !
