lol they have pits for police operations.
Its not like a lower engine mount is life threatening, a ball joint maybe. but thats rediculous.
They should just be looking for bald tyres, exhausts and brakes and seatbelts. saftey and noise issues.

gotta love revenue raising.

Sorry mate, I have no idea, I never been defected. I think you have to be signed off by an RTA accredited engineer thou. Who's to say the cops gear for measuring DBA was out of wack or the oil leak was just condensation. You just dont know...
