Mot

[annan]

Supra's just got through its first mot in my ownership with flying colours. And it was done at a Toyota garage- And when they heard it was an import they started warning me that it could fail.

 

It was well funny as I waited and watched the MOT been done- every mechanic had a go sitting inside her.

Yeah, like if it was a UK car it would pass whatever

 

These garages are full of shit for the sake of it. Any car can fail, it's all down to the judgement of the tester. There's no reason that an import is any more likely to fail than a UK car. Most of them have been through the SVA, after that, the MoT is a breeze.

Sorry to open this up again guys, but I have just noticed my MOT has expired.. Thought it was middle of March, but I was wrong..

 

Car has obviouly had an SVA test, and I have a CAT to insert for the emissions. However, no fog lights. There is a switch, but nothing connected to it.

 

Just wondering how it passed the SVA test without these? Do you think it will fail on the fog lights? And also, it re-inserting the CAT essential for emissions, as my MR2 had the CAT removed and still passed?

 

Any info on these questions please all?

AFAIK without a foglight .. that's a failure. You might be lucky and not need the cat for the MOT. 20 minute job to put cat #2 back in ... if it's cat #1 - might take you abit longer.
