The road between Thurles and Nenagh is unreal, its on the way to an NCT center and ive heard of cars failing due to damage incurred on the way to the test, steering ball joints and lamps misaligned, after a pre test telling them the car was sound the day before, happened to a mate of mine and he is a mechanic and knew the car to be in order before the test, failed on unbalanced wheels and steering out of line, he had her checked two days before the test and it was ok, not happy at all.
