Need a copy of the VOSA notice for 172 Cups rear breaks

[anyone4apint]

Hi Guys,

Does anyone have a copy of the PDF from the VOSA magazine detailing the rear breaks being terrible on a 172 Cup? I have searched on here and all the links I can find are dead.

Im taking my car to a new MOT place tomorrow and want to be fully armed for the inevitable 'yes, the breaks suck by design' discussion.

Cheers!

Any MOT garage should get linked to it via the vin number when entering the details into their computer anyway.

Think the computer brings it up on the data sheet at the mot station when they log in with your reg number/chassis number.

I know it 'should' bring it up, but the last place I took it too refused to believe it and I ended up failing, coming home, zip-tying the valve, taking it back and magically passing. Really cant be arsed with that rigmoral again so this is a precaution.
