My MOT :eek: (NO not MINE, Elisas')

 

And I don't even have a rear bumper attached at the moment!

 

Items that she might fail on are...........

 

Headlamp Aim.

HID's fitted, without self leveling (technically it should, so I've been told, we'll see).

Small size front number plate.

 

Possible......

Rear tyres, although they are above the minimum wear mark, so they should be fine for now (new ones next year)

RUST!!!!!!!!!! (not much, just a little on the inner sill to floor pan areas)

And maybe some bushes :confused:

Good luck...

Fingers crossed for you mate.

Good luck Dave

Dave,

 

The current UK law is very "grey" about aftermarket H.I.D's fitted to cars. When I started selling them I looked into it and when I find it amongs the thousands of files on my HDD I'll post up the actual wording of the law.

 

However, at the moment it is perfectly legal to install aftermarket H.I.D kits. The law only (currently) gets specific when you're talking about factory fitted (ie new) H.I.D kits. These should have a self leveling system (and over on the continent you can't have them unless there are headlamp washers installed - there's a good reason for that though ...) If an aftermarket kit is fitted the only criteria at MOT time (currently) is that the light pattern (spread and height if you will) falls within standard halogen light parameters.

 

You'll probably find that the MOT guys won't even bat an eye and just check the light setting. So don't openly advertise you've got H.I.D's fitted and you should be fine.

 

Good luck.

Fibreglassing was a success today, along with the first coat of filler (requires sanding yet), all electrics finished, bumper re-installed and everything was tested OK. So she's street leagal again :D

Mine's in at the moment, so know how you feel. Definitely slightly concerned.
