An extra mot is showing on mot history, which did not happen
Today 23/03/2016 I got my BMW its MoT.
On checking the certificate it says a MoT took place on 05/08/2015.
However I only bought the car on 29/07/2015, so the above MoT never took place.
It now gives the impression that my car may be clocked.
How can right this.

I'm guessing that what happened is that the dealer or previous keeper re-MoTd the car within a month of the MoT due date and did this before you bought the car. You can get almost 13 months MoT that way. But a question remains why, if the MoT lasted to 5-8-2016 you had the car MoTd on 23-3-2016?

The nearside front fog light on my 2013 Vauxhall Corsa doesn't work, I have changed the bulb but still not working, will my car fail its MoT because of this?
Official advice is to place the French Crit'Air sticker on the right side of vehicle windscreen but for most UK cars this will impinge more than 40mm into zone B and won't that therefore be an MoT failure?
My 2010 Hyundai ix35 has indicators in the door mirrors. One has failed. Does this mean that the car will fail its next MoT?
