Has any one any idea what this is about?

I have the usual USA size plates but yellow/white with the UK reg. Is it related to the age of the vehicle???

Our baby failed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our indicators are not 'flashing in unison',the fog light is too dim and the headlights have not been adapted for UK roads.
I've invested in a nice bright bulb for the foglamp,bought beam deflectors for the headlights and booked her in for the indicators to be sorted. So it's all simple stuff but inconvenient
I lost the plot a bit when I saw him coming toward me with the fail note.
She passed last year and we've made no changes but the guy was adamant.
Re test next week-wish me luck

Default MOT The annual heart attack!

That's a real downer... he sounds a real "Job's-worth"

Our indicators were out of sink (Front side repeater and the rest) for nearly four years - I just changed it for my own reasons, as for headlights you can see the previous posts it is not an issue.

Not sure were you went but would be inclined to ask around for another MOT station.

Chaps that are that 'pickie' can cause more than MOT failures!

Good Luck on the retest - get it done within 10 days and they can only test what failed - and it should not cost....
