Muh, its 1995 Bongo oldest there is there is likely to be rust but nothing in the current MOT, so scroll down and look for Fails, then check them for what rust has been found, then check how long it took to repair the rust - bear in mind that it will take at least a day to do weld repairs, then another day to rub down and prime the bear metal, then another day to re-spray and yet another day to lacquer the new paint so 4 days seems about the minimum to me to do a good job ?
So in 2014; So it took them 3 days to get mot and fail, weld, paint and re-test mot ? Really ?? I would want to check out those bills and inspect the how the rust around the suspension points was dealt with!
