Please don't recommend people who are 'not that thorough' It does us no favours - or them if an MOT inspector spots this thread.

I'd rather have someone point out the problems that I had grown accustomed to, than wrap a vehicle up possibly injuring someone or worse. If you don't like the MOT stations quote you can always shop around or DIY, then go back for MOT.

Just my point of view of course.
