Nope. I got one about 2 years ago. Couldn’t drive home.
Nope.
That’s what happens when you drive with an orange (or onion?) on the dash.
Nope…..what failures deemed it dangerous
4 years ago got the same sticker, removed it and drove to the mechanic to get it fixed. Back 2 weeks later for the retest.
Nope been around for a while.
Generally you’ll get it for out of date or bald tyres.
But structural rust will get you one as well.
Nope always there. Try to drive away and they’ll cool the Gardaí on you.
If you get caught after a failed dangerous its a straight 5 points so its best to not drive until it is fixed
I got the sticker last month, 2 tyres were fucked.
no I remember seeing this category before
What did they fail you on?
It’s hysterical bullshit – happened to my missus – nct guy shouting at her for drive a dangerous car – one tyre was at 1.7mm – utter bullshit
No. Means you have to get it towed from centre, can’t be driven away.
Can be got for something as simple as tyres.
That’s hilarious
OP, out of curiosity why did it fail?
I ain’t no mechanic but I think it was the magerine left in the sun that did you in the with failed dangerous category.
I got that in my last nct. Guy handed over the keys and said just a few small things. And then I notice the sticker. Nearly lost my life thinking the car had to be scrapped. But just had a bald tyre that I got replaced on the way home
Can you get me one of this stickers for my GF please?
Nope. I got one a couple years back.
My brother asked me to nct his car while he was out of the country. Ended up getting this on the window and advised to get it towed home. Chanced my arm because I’d no alternative. But bricking it the whole way home.
I got the sticker few years ago for leaking brake fluid.
burn it out, try claim few quid off the insurance, problemo solved.
Of course not, if it was new it wouldn’t need an NCT.
Your exhaust pipe appears to be in the car.
Nope. A friend of mine got one a while back and I spent the day laughing at him.
Jaysus, do people not check their tyres? many comments here of people driving on bald tyres shocked that they get called on having bald tyres. They’re the thing keeping you on the road.
I was doing my nct last year and I heard the man working there tell a customer his car was a death trap and the steering rack was loose and the car needed repairs and not to drive it, I saw that guy drive off in his car 🤦😒
No, not new as I got that myslef a few years ago lol. It was a legit failed dangerously in my case. Whatever test they do to the brakes made them stop working altogether straight away, so basically my car was a rusted ticking death bomb. Driving around before the NCT there was no indication that there was anything wrong and we got the car serviced for the NCT days before so who knows what the mechanic actaully did to the car, if they did anything that is.
