car exhaust prices kwik fit
Kwik Fit MOT nightmare?
I just had my first MOT today. It was free since I used a voucher given by kwik fit insurance.
The MOT failed because of the exhaust, the two front tyres and wiper blades. Including the 10% discount I get from my insurance company, they quote me a total of £292.
If I remember they said around £147 for two part exhaust, £20 for wiper blades and the rest for tyres.
Is this price reasonable?
People at work keep telling me that they are rip off.
Who should I trust? Should I just go to a local garage?
Another crazy thing they told me at kwik fit is that since the car was tested and failed, it's illegal to take it back on the road eventhough my old MOT expires on 23 of May.
Is there any truth in that?
Please help. Any advice whould be much appreciated.
Can't really advise on the repair price (it's usually best to ring around a few other places to see if you can get it cheaper) but what Kwik-Fit have told you about not being able to take it back on the road is total nonsense. Legally the car is still MOT'd so can still be driven (although it might not be a wise idea if it really does have these defects).
