.......... the bodges seen on imports. Floors pop-riveted etc. Unscrupulous dealers (privateers) will fire some underseal over them and carry on ...........

I bought a UK car like that with an MoT - the one on the rally clip I recently posted. I got it re-MoT'd too. When I took it off the road to repair it I was amazed how bad it was. So perhaps the MoT isn't a lot of use after all. :smash:

Just as an addendum to this it would appear that the 40 yr mot exception is being done on...

1. Registered date only

2. As a rolling 40 yr basis based on the reg date not the 1st of Jan the following yr . So if was built on Feb 20th 78 it becomes exempt after Feb 20th 18 etc
