I took my mums old fiesta for MOT a couple of weeks ago. I checked the paperwork from last year and and it had 5 advisories so I looked at all of them and decided to just take it back to the same test centre and see if it failed on anything else as its 16 years old now and not worth spending a fortune on. Same place but a different tester and he passed it with
no advisories!! He said it was a great little car with no problems.
However, if you're having any problems or noises with that part of the suspension it might be worth getting it done if you trust the garage.
Rear ARB bushes are £3 odd each from VX and take about 20 mins per side once you work out how it's done - did mine last week - so check what they're quoting to do them too.
