Kwik Fit say no-no to MoTs on classic?

Ok, just to close off this discussion and hopefully help everyone from wasting their time...
i took the RR along for the MoT last week. I went off to wander round Wickes.
10 mins later i get a call....never a good sign. Seemingly they can't lift the vehicle on their new ramp.

There's a separate lift bit that goes on the chassis rails / jack points so the suspension can hang down for testing. The new lift can't get this bit high enough to lift the RR...so no test possible. I did consider asking if i should pick up some 4x2 for them!

So, in summary - get them to confirm their lifty bit can get to the chassis rails on a classic so the suspension can be dropped for testing. Otherwise you'll waste your time.

Seems to be the new lifts that are the problem - ask how old the lift is! Once you give them the explanation you'll look less like a nutter.

Hope this helps someone!

Suspension should not need to be dropped for testing - sounds like they are not following the official MOT Test Guides ??

Take it to a proper MOT tester.

indeed. It's booked in with my man round the corner this Friday. He's never had this problem...he's just hard to get an appointment with!

I should have told them the suspension is fine - i've just been in and done all the bushes!

Should be MOT'd on a 4 poster with a jacking beam..

Mind you kwick **** can be useless at times.
