MOT extension

[earthman]

No you don't, the government has extended the mot period from a certain date under the covid19 rules, they could possibly increase the extension period again if they wished.

The mot is a legal requirement set by the government not the insurance companies who have work to/within the law, classic cars, plant vehicles, tractors and other vehicle clases are exempt from mots by law.

I've yet to see a steam traction engine at a mot station/ hgv test center.

Good point about classic vehicles, I'm amazed that some owners of such vehicles have reported having problems with some insurance companies, breakdown/recovery services and even some cops over this aspect.

My motorcycle will be qualify for no mot and tax in three years time, I hope that things are crystal clear to all by then.

A simple case of "computer says no" and numpties who don't understand the law or how to input the correct information and be advised by more knowledgeable people.

QED...

The MOT extension is being stopped from 1st of August.
If the MOT was extended it's still ok for the extra 6 months
