MOT time again.

[Britprius]

I managed to get the car in for MOT today after it's extended holiday in the body shop. The car past with one advisory "front self adjusting headlamp link broken". This is almost certain pothole damage as the two ball joints on the rod are free to articulate.
The tester was not sure if this was a fail, but after a phone call it was established that because there is also a ride height sensor on the rear that was intact the tester could not ascertain if the system was working or not. The regulation on this is that the tester in these circumstances must give it a pass. The fifth pass in a row, but the first with an advisory.

This is an easy repair there being no need to even jack the car up to remove and repair the offending rod.
