NCT testers in disbelief over how car was 'fixed' before being brought for test
NCT testers have issued a warning to other drivers planning to attend their tests over the coming months
NCT testers have been left baffled by the state of a car that had been "fixed" prior to the owner presenting it for a test recently.
"You got to be kidding me," the NCT service Facebook page posted along with a clip of a tester inspecting the car in question. The tester can be seen poking a very unusual front wing.
Their full post read: "You got to be kidding...This car's front wing was covered with silicon when it arrived at the NCT Centre. This is not the way to 'repair' your car. You’re responsible for making sure your vehicle is always safe to drive."
They added: "This vehicle failed the NCT as the repair was not in line with the manufacturer's recommendations."
They revealed the car was presented for test in the north east of the country but didn't reveal the exact test centre.
NCT testers also recently issued a separate warning to Irish drivers after a car's major fail in recent days.
NCT Ireland posted a picture of the underside of a number of cars that have recently failed the NCT along with the post: "This is what can happen if you don't look after your car properly. Complete corrosion and an NCT fail.
