T Tombusa Sunday Drivers Jun 12, 2012 #1 Failed NCT - The drivers electric window didn't go down !!! It will be a free visual inspection when it's checked out. On the plus side, the guy told me it was an absolute beauty, in great nick! But you can't put nice sentiments on your cert . . . .

S smokey wrx Petrolheads Jun 12, 2012 #6 [quote author=markobucko link=topic=34736.msg398626#msg398626 date=1339536777] drivers window is only one that matters... [/quote] As said above! It only matters because the driver is required to give particulars to the gardai out the window and for hand signals in case of emergency etc.. Not just the tester bein a cnut as has been suggested!
