Hi all,
I've decide to have a look at some of the patches of rust in my van.
I can remember from reading on the forum that rust near certain things like seat belts are considered a failure for an mot.
Just wondered if the attached picture would cause a failure? Is it structural for example?
My MOT is due shortly.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Rust - MOT failure?
Well from what I can see it would be a failure - there is nothing to test!

Tried it in a different browser and can see it now - ominously close to the jacking point which may also be bad on closer inspection. Doesn't bode well.

Thanks for the reply.
I'll have a poke about the jacking point.
It was fine about 6 months ago when I had the van on stands.
