Oh blimey  :wnk: didn't he offer to change it round for you for a fee ? So he could give you a pass ?
Hopefully when you take it back once you have turned the tyre round he will give you a free retest 👍

these blokes are jobs worths when it comes to the MOT...

He gave me an advisory for a missing bolt... thats not missing. Theres a bolt hole with no bolt in it.. its not supposed to have one the dingus.

and I cant afford to pay to have the tyre swapped. and I will have to pay £10 retest fee.
