Got my car's ITV tomorrow (Friday). And yes, dreading it. Car is fine but the process is totally whacked! Glad to read that they'll be improving it.
It´s not the waiting for an appointment that bothers me - everyone knows it has to be done and can make appointments well in advance easily - it´s the waiting on arrival. Having to queue behind other vehicles with engines running for an hour or so is very boring and extremely dangerous, taking on board the exhaust fumes. Why don´t the staff or notices instruct those queuing to turn off their engines ?
The every-year approach of the ITV (and in the UK the MOT) is often viewed by motorists with dread - but these tests are never a matter of opinion, they are factual and there's little doubt that the discovery of these faults (and rectifying them) saves lives every year. Priceless!
