MOT fail?

I recently noticed a tail pipe has dropped off the zorst
is this an MOT fail?

Re: MOT fail?

Probably, but it's an easy fix. Just don't sever your brake line like I did

Re: MOT fail?

Well it did fail on the exhaust and  a CV boot too, so not that bad for an old banger eh?
It's going in to be fixed on Tuesday and I'll hopefully soon have the old  thing road legal for another year.
BTW Exhaust back box section only £57 from Ebay so not painful.

Re: MOT fail?

That's a pretty good result for a van of this vintage

Re: MOT fail?

Well I got the MOT today and the back box is no longer making the cab a bit whiffy
I also have a good spare stowed underneath just in case, so it's no longer taking up space inside the van
leaving me more room for the usual gubbins, odds and sods and piles of crap.
