from an MOT forum: This has always been a tricky one from a legal point of view. The garage are technically right that up until computerisation of the scheme, no one would be any the wiser (including police, insurance etc). However big brother is now watching so this changes things. That said, to 'be caught out' you would need to have drawn attention from the police or have lodged an insurance claim for things to possibly come back to haunt you. Even saying that, due to data protection and the way the computerised system is currently working, the authorities may still be unable to access anything but the 'current' pass certificate, as a vehicle's registration mark is not enought on its own to interrgoate the MoT database - it will merely inform them of the last pass certificate as far as I'm aware. Remember however that you can still be prosecuted for driving an unroadworthy vehicle regardless of a current MoT certificate. Best to err on the side of caution and only drive the vehicle to pre-arranged repairs/re-test. A very grey area that would need to go through the courts for a legally definitive answer. From experience however, the police would in most cases accept the fact that you had a current MoT and leave it at that.

i think its a little harsh & wouldnt be overly bothered about it!! LOL! the MOT certificate is valid for 12 months, so you still have an MOT. even without an MOT im pretty sure your insurance is not invalid. IIRC its only about a £60 fine with no points!

LOL! have always upgraded O/S's quite quickly but have avoided VISTA like the plague!!

its illegal to drive an unroadworthy car whether you have an MOT or not!

you should be measuring alternator output in amps, voltage is just regulated by the voltage regulator & doesnt ness mean its reaching max output ;)

my mate had one, used to be close in my car but used to have him on the straights, esp when his 155mph limit kicked in & went pissing past him :D so should have no chance against yours!! LOL! they do handle well & would pull from me away leaving roundabouts

yea, exactly the same as my G/F would do LOL!! :rofl:

yeah, great if you like driving boats!! :rofl:
