Evening chaps,
Its getting near MOT time and Im wondering if the rusty spare wheel well is going to be an issue.

There is no danger of the spare falling out, but it has got quite a big hole in it. As its not structural as such, I wondered if its likely to be a failure point?

Regards,
Kev.

Get your tape measure out. If it's within 30cm/ 12'' of something structural then it probably will.
