I use http://www.motuk.co.uk/manual/mc_contents.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; it's the official manual on line.

I've also printed out a page and waved it a garage who said a petrol cap has to be locking .. but with hindsight the garage were a bunch of to55ers anyway.

that one raised a giggle.

What's the craic with daylight MOT? Might as well keep it all in one thread.

You need a brake light and it switchgear indicators is fitted they must work but if you don't have the switchgear you don't need indicators?

It's best to ask your mot center how they want to do it but as a rule of thumb if it's on there it needs to work. Technically you don't need a stop / tail light but it's safer to have one, same with a light at the front.

I think the minimum is number plate, rear reflector and horn.
