With any test VOSA carries out you have the right to appeal if you are not happy with the result.

An examiners decision can and has been overuled after re-examination by senior examiners of Vosa and Bristol is the main place to appeal too.

This has been discussed previously and the same old same old goes on,its the testers interpretation of the written word and their decision at time of test exactly the same with MOT testing.

Two distinct definitions in the dictionary apply to rust and corrosion,rust is the start of corrosion and if I had £1 for every failure for "excessively corroded brake pipes" I would not have to work.

My point,the tester is human as is the presenter and if you go overboard with edging and other safety/trim related items in my opinion is worth brownie points and keep the tester happy.
