slipped the mot tester £20. Works most times
those days are long gone - i defy anyone to be able to get a dodgy MOT cert thats of any use these days
might be long gone for most garages. I know of 2 where i come from that still do it. Not to my cars tho
i don't believe that at all

I know of a place in Hull that does em. After all the only thing that has changed is that the mot tester enters the details online. instead of just on a bit of paper. There's nowt to stop em from passing a rust bucket by simply saying that it's passed the tests. when it wouldn't have in real life.
and when VOSA audit that days tests and select the rust bucket as their test sample the tester and the garage can kiss their living goodbye
garages around here often find a vehicle tested 20 minutes ago being driven back to their garage by a VOSA man who will go through the test results with a fine tooth comb - if anything is missed they get penalty points - if they reach a certain number of points it's curtains
any tester who produces dodgy certs these days won't be testing for very much long - rightly so

That doesn't seem to stop em though. Like every business int it they live in the hope it'll never happen to them.
you may be right - but VOSA will only need to catch them doing it once and it's game over
but in a busy place like Oxford .........

Not recent, but I bought a totally unroadworthy heap from a copper in Streatham... with a brand new MoT. No problem as all I wanted was the MoT and some relatively rust-free bodywork to transfer all the bits to. I suspect that any nice policeman who is "known" to the tester won't have much trouble, even now.

well i bet even if the tester is bezzy mates with the Pope he's still going to be serving fries at KFC after he's been caught

That's probably why the places I know that do it, always do it on the last car of the day.... less chances of an inspector being around.
