MOT failure?
I have a 4" long crack in the rear windscreen of the tintop. How am I set for MOT with that.
If its an automatic fail I'm probably gonna scrap the car

rear windscreen...back window?
that should be toughened glass so a 4 inch crack would be imposable surely?

I don't think the back screen is part of the MOT unless the tester thinks it dangerous.

error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I'd have thought so too. Should shatter not crack.

Pop in and ask at an MoT test station whether they'd fail it or not.

Take it out, if its not there they can't test it.
Same goes for the front, takes the wipers and washers out the test also.
