Thanks for the reply, there were a couple if advisories for the handbrake at limit and corrosion on back plates but nothing at all about the suspension. the others are fairly minor in the scheme of things but faulty suspension is a whole other ball game especially as i intend(ed) to camper convert so it needs to be able to take the extra weight. Now Ive got a Pass from the MOT, fail from my garage and 2question marks from you guys an independent inspection is definitely in order, I can still reject the vehicle at this point as long as i have grounds and dealer can have the argument with MOT tester. First time I have bought second hand, always had family vehicles before!
