do what I did. Have all your paperwork, renewal form, insurance docs and old MOT certificate in the glovebox. Then if you get stopped just say you were meaning to get it done.





oh and loose some of that bling around your neck and go a bit more understated and you should be fine

The problem is if you go past an ANPR camera or plod car fitted with one.

If the computer says NO, they'll pull you.

Swiss can't have an old MOT form with me as its the 1st one. I thougght it was due mid august

Leslie

I don't know if no MOT will invalidate your insurance. Probably not since you can drive it to the garage to get an MOT, but it might be worth checking. Terrible if you had an accident and had no insurance to cover it.

Found out it's 10kgs over normal MOT weights so I had to find a class 7 centre, it's booked in for Wednesday so that will have to do

You can only use it if you are on your way to the appointment at the MOT centre or taking directly home after being there, if not, it's liable for Operation Cube-it, and then the van will be having an appointment with the crusher.

I don't think the van will get crushed for being 3 days late in having an
MOT, its still taxed and insured.

pslewis

You'll be fine ..... plead ignorance ...... 3 days is nothing.

If it is roadworthy that is .... and if it is the Insurance is valid.

Cars do not get crushed for no MOT if clearly roadworthy.

Its a 2007 van Pete, the only way I haved to worry is if there is an MOT purge??? and then I'm not so sure due to being the 1st MOT ???
