Yep, inspect is normally £20-£40, they give you the cost of repair and it stays at that cost. If they discover yet another problem, they don't force you to undergo the repair.

It is permitted for non-certified (MOT) cars to go to and from a mechanic so you can space out repairs over a month or more if needed.

Source: my friend bought a decades old Volvo so he tends to have LOTS of trouble keeping it in a reasonable state on his general wages.
