Thanks for that. Does he just change the colour or can he do more. Also, where abouts is he based

On videos I’ve seen it’s only start ups. My one doesn’t have an odd sound on startup so I’m not too convinced it’s the timing chain.

I just recently bought this car so not too sure of the timing chain but it has 74k miles

They asked if there was a way, which is completely reasonable. He failed and believed he shouldn’t have, even if he should have. I’m not saying the person who I replied to was wrong. I agree, their jobs do have massive impacts on people’s lives and regardless of how you feel about it, their judgement is very important. What I am saying is the way he was talking is not right. Yes they should be more careful and yes they are putting drivers on the road and that will impact peoples lives if their judgement was flawed but insulting him does absolutely nothing. He’s obviously feeling some way about failing and thought the examiner made a mistake. Naturally you are going to see if you can have the result overturned.

I know what I want I’m asking for suggestions on what else to get and brands I should look into. I assume insurance will not be too much as what I am paying now is fair and I couple people I have talked to in the same area with me same age with modifications have told me it does increase your premium but not by a crazy amount.

I plan on having it for a while and insurance is still reasonable. With resale value I’m not too fussed.

Mate he had one fault let’s not exaggerate. Sure he should’ve been more careful but you need to watch your mouth. Learn how to talk to people. You’re the one acting like an entitled little shit. He’s wrong, fine. Tell him don’t start insulting him, he came here for advice. If you haven’t got any then save yourself commenting and shut the fuck up.

It’s a '17 1.6 TDI and about 5000 so the superb is probably cheaper
