This is also exactly why you should always make sure you get any little issues checked and sorted in advance of MOT - because they'll change through the nose and once they've registered a fail, they REALLY have you by the short and curlies, because you can't even tell them to bugger off - the car has been rendered illegal to drive.
Though you can actually drive it to another nearby garage so long as previous MOT is still in date - often they won't tell you that, or will outright lie about it.
