Car failed its MOT today- Cracked alloy

For some reason I didnt think thats something they would see or check in an MOT.
Not sure how bad every elses cracks have been as they said mine was only 0.8mm. Must be hard to see at that size

Here was me thinking it would be a quick visit.

Also failed on its headlight alignment which I thought was automatic self leveling?

They said they would fix the headlight for free and give it a free retest which was nice. And they washed and hoovered it but it still failed so not that much consilation.

They are going to chat with head office about the cracked alloy
