Ivan's coupe: seeing RED

[Ivan141]

Yes..it's the most stupid system you could think of.. Every year the whole car is inspected to pretty tight regulations (not as bad as some other countries though). The bad thing is that you do this at regular garage's instead of an independent institute (like in germany).
You often get shop's trying to rip people off by failing a car for bogus reasons or for doing repairs that arent necessary for MOT approval.
The dutch have an old saying that perfectly applies to this situation:
"tying the cat to the bacon" or in more simple words the garage's doing the inspection have every reason to make up expensive repairs for their own profit.
