Hey guys, gf's cars failed its MOT late March, tax was due so we declared it SORN and got the work progressively done over the enxt 3 weeks, now I'm just curious about the re-test, I know if it is within 10 working days of the failure you have to take it back to the same test centre, but if that time has passed and it has been SORN for ~1 month, can it be tested anywhere? Or does it still need to be at the place it failed at?

Thanks!
 
Ok, thanks, the main reason I'd like to take it elsewhere is there was a lot of subframe rot, this has been legitimately repaired, welded back up & undersealed, but don't want this place thinking we just bodged it & painted the udnerside all black! But £700 later the old girl should be good to go, failed a few emissions tests but have had the Lambda tweaked and the only thing not changed was the CAT, with the specialist stating its worth leaving it, if it passes, great, if not, get it redone and the free retest on that part!

Cheers for clarifying it all, though :)
