MOT take 2 tomorrow!

MOT time take 2 tomorrow! Took it last week to a class 4 place, didn't realise my 110 is a class 7!

Everything works (even the light on the Hazard switch! ) all the steering gear, shocks, brakes, etc are new, the chassis is really good, no rust, fingers crossed it goes straight through!

Errrrr....not sure on exact details but a lot of Fenders have a Gross Vehicle Weight of 3050kg which is over the 3000kg limit for class 4 goods vehicles. There used to be a dual use exemption (goods/utility) which has been scraped.

You'll have to check but I think yours is still class 4 as it's got about 40 seats so isn't classed as goods but as passenger..........possibly

Someone that knows what they're talking about will be along shortly

Yeah mines 3050kg so is class 7 unfortunately.

Sat in the MOT place now so find out shortly if it has a shiny new MOT or if I've got to spend MORE on it!

Just got mine done and passed with no advisories which is nice. Took 2 hours though as the VOSA inspector was there to check up on the examiner :-(

Most thorough mot my Defender has ever had.

Yep all passed with no advisories

They commented on how good it all is underneath

And it Class 4 because I've fitted seats in the back, even though it is 3050kg.

Now to tax it.
