Finance was up on my lovely 197 Lux and needed to get rid so have part-exchanged against a slightly older 197. Picked the car up from Nottingham yesterday and dropped it off to have the alloys re-furb'd and done gloss black at a garage near me (Preston). Received a call to say one of the tyres was split in 3 places (yes I have been screwed here) and the rear brake discs were 'disgusting'. The guy sent me these pics :

Do they need replacing or can they be attributed to normal wear and tear. Apparently the car had a service and MOT at the end of August... (********)
It's too late re the tyre - I've bought 2 new ones but hope the dealer will re-imburse me - but if the discs shouldn't have passed the MOT I have another angle to lean on.
Advice please...!
