All sorts of confusion there I feel. Why retest without changing the brake pads?
Yeah, baffling that one - only thing I can think is that it had sat for a while and a road test was suggested to unbind the calliper... but then why would you MOT it rather than get someone to just check the brakes.
A road test isn't going to make the friction material grow back though. Less than 1.5mm left is deeply sketchy.
