Default The dreaded MOT time is here

My A8 3.7 QS will be going through its MOT test in the next few weeks, and it must be completed by the 1st May when the current one expires.

The car has intergalactic mileage, but what kind of things can I check before putting the car in. She drives fine, all the bulbs, horn etc. work. Brakes and disks were changed at 172K (now on 174K), had some suspension arms changed on one side in January.

Looking back at the online MOT history, the last MOT had a single advisory and that was "Offside Front Track rod end ball joint has slight play", the car has covered 6,000 miles since the last MOT so I wonder if this could lead to a fail this time.
