But at the very least it shows at some point during the year it was deemed roadworthy. Whereas it could go years unfit for the road even though the owner believes it to be ok.
Just because someone is enthusiastic about something does not mean they are capable of telling if something is right or wrong with a vehicle.

Good point. I would always get an MOT following a major rebuild, its so easy to miss something that another person looking it over is never a bad thing. I left the rear axle split pin out whilst I ordered stainless ones, then simply forgot to fit it. My bad and it was put right straight away, but it took extra eyes to spot it. Would probably have seen it myself fairly quickly but could have been too late.
Moorey:
Do you think you might be more likely to get a pull by the police as the ANPR would show no Mot even if it showed exempt. Would they be more likely just to check your vehicle.

I'm still undecided on this one. I see plenty of highly dangerous cars and bikes in my brothers garage.
More worryingly when issues are pointed out to customers they just shrug there shoulders and say it can wait till MOT day. Or even accuse the garage of fishing for work.

What's the law on MOT's for classics at the moment? my old fella has a Sunbeam S8 and a RE Crusader Sport that he does not MOT now.
