As Phil says above. On the MOT system there are two boxes for tread 1.6 and 1.0 limits so they may of just ticked the wrong box. The edge of the tyre isn’t classed as part of the tread as it’s not a full cut into the main tread so an advise only

'Marmite' Possibly one of the most famous 75 tourers produced! left the production line as the last of only Three Rover 75 tourers produced in Trophy Yellow. 48 hours later Longbridge closed. The last sold ordered 75 Tourer. Paid for by the Phoenix Four and handed over by John Towers to the Warwickshire Northampton Air ambulance service as a Rapid Response vehicle
