Just had my MOT and on the history on the government website they failed it at first because the bonnet wouldn't close, and then passed it afterwards when (presumably) they managed to close it normally. There's nothing wrong with the bonnet and it wasn't mentioned to me at all when I collected the car.
What's that all about? Did the mechanic forget how to close a bonnet, fail it and then someone more senior showed him/her how to do it and change it to a pass? Should I complain? Kinda screwed up my MOT history now, makes the car look worse than it is if I were to sell it.
