Had mine done about a month ago at Nationwide Autocentre, Palmerston Road, Harrow. Had no issues with anything other than a passing comment at the noise level and had to stick a number plate on the front.

they pulled my front splitter off my old metro gti trying to get it in to their garage, as its so steep. they also couldnt pull the air out of the hydrogas units as they had the later type.. they didnt know much about emissions when i was asking if i could borrow their gas analyser on my old metro and play with the fse to get it to pass, so i never went back there..

so im worried about them crunching my mazda getting in their and then failing it anyway :)

one2watch whereabouts do you live?
