Not Ranked
I have to agree Ben, alot of it looks like stuff that engineer should have pointed out, I realise the testing is alot less strict up here, but I would expect even my engineer would have questioned alot of the items on that list.
Things like wheels poking from guards, miss match between tyres placard and tyres fitted, fuel vented to atmosphere (I am assuming charcoal canister non existant or not plumbed correctly), No E on reverse light.
Would have been pretty obvious items.
Also just remove screen and roof when presented for inspection would have addressed alot of the list.
I realise it was raining on the day and that is unfortunate timing, but with teh screen out then there would have been no option to fit the roof and a new inspection date or a covered transporter could have been used.
I am not having a crack at you Baz, but engineer is the one paid to check and advise you of all these options.
I would be chatting to him more than causing a hornets nest bun fight at the RTA.
