New MOT Laws!

[Coldfuse]

Tyres presumably need to be E-marked

I think that's just for them to be onsale here. I think when they are on a car they just have to conform the the normal tire rules like tread depth and wear.

What about the poor buggers over on the RX8 forum. Stipulates that doors need to be opened from inside and out!! Might start seeing them with fabricated handles on rear doors now

i heard this from my mot tester at work that soon fixed bucket seats will be a fail (but i assume if you still have the rear seats in)

Pages 8 and 9 are what you want to read

Hang on full changes incoming.....


EDIT: Quoted from somewhere else.


If any of the lights have been modified - with coloured lenses for example - to result in their colour or intensity being altered, your vehicle will also fail.

Does this mean clear side-repeaters will result in a failure?

i would say so mate since the light is still going to be orange?

i could be wrong though.. i dont see why it would tho! so annoying all these things that your car could end up failing over!
