New mot rules

Postby snake on Mon Nov 05, 2012 2:03 pm

Just thought i would let people know lots and lots of new mot rules came into force today, just had the new notice, including ESP is now testable, airbags are now tested, and seat belt pretensioners are now tested(ie if they are fitted from factory and they have been ditched its a fail), electrical wiring, and urm there are lots more! cant remember them all! so before you get your car tested have a gander over the new rules!

wont be long till they come in though, they normally let us advise for 2-3 months to get used to the new procedures, but it will come in as fails soon!
