Default Falied MoT

Failed MoT this morning folks, surprisingly the CV joint i was worried about didn't even get a mention. Only thing it's failed on are 'both dipped headlight beams being too low.' Is it easy enough to fix and how much should i be paying? Cheers

Easy fix, unclip the headlamp adjusters from the back of the headlamps (bayonet fitting) and adjust the screw. The adjusters have probably lost their fluid, hence being low.

This is the one thing that the MOT tester is allowed to adjust under "PRS"..yours obviously could not be fixed easily.
Good luck with the repairs

Hedgehogs are in the protected species list, so no, you shouldn't dazzle them
