MOT Class???

Just took my 110 for an MOT, they put the details into the system and it came up class change?

He checked the chassis plate and it says 3050 kgs, which he says is not class 4.

How can I check what MOT class it is?

7 mate

last 5 MOTs on my 110 utility is C4! last mot was may 2014!

Utility and SW are Class 4.
Van and Pick-up are Class 7.

If the plate says 3050 it can no longer be mot'd in class 4 as class 4 is up to 3000

Ah ok mine was a pickup, and now a van.

I'm sure the last MOT was class 4 tho, I'll double check later.

Mine is sometimes Class 4 and at others she's a Class 7! On the DVLA printout used at my local MoT station we've settled at Class 4.

She's a 1990 NAD 110 Hard Top ... apparently there's a difference between a 'hard top' and a 'van' ... Don't ask!!!

the important bit ;

dual-purpose vehicle

a vehicle constructed or adapted for the carriage both of passengers and of goods or burden of any description, being a vehicle of which the unladen weight does not exceed 2040 kg, and which either—
(i)

is so constructed or adapted that the driving power of the engine is, or by the appropriate use of the controls of the vehicle can be, transmitted to all the wheels of the vehicle; or
(ii)

satisfies the following conditions as to construction, namely—
(a)

the vehicle must be permanently fitted with a rigid roof, with or without a sliding panel;
(b)

the area of the vehicle to the rear of the driver's seat must—
(i)

be permanently fitted with at least one row of transverse seats (fixed or folding) for two or more passengers and those seats must be properly sprung or cushioned and provided with upholstered back-rests, attached either to the seats or to a side or the floor of the vehicle; and
(ii)

be lit on each side and at the rear by a window or windows of glass or other transparent material having an area or aggregate area of not less than 1850 square centimetres on each side and not less than 770 square centimetres at the rear; and
(c)

the distance between the rearmost part of the steering wheel and the back-rests of the row of transverse seats satisfying the requirements specified in head (i) of sub-paragraph (b) (or, if there is more than one such row of seats, the distance between the rearmost part of the steering wheel and the back-rests of the rearmost such row) must, when the seats are ready for use, be not less than one-third of the distance between the rearmost part of the steering wheel and the rearmost part of the floor of the vehicle.

unless it's a dual purpose vehicle - i.e. utility or csw

Cool I'd best get it re-booked at a class 7 place then.

Is there anything to stop anyone replating at 2999kg? You'd lose 51kg of payload but apart from that....?

I think if you replate, it would have to be one of the two original weights land rover published for the 110. so to get it as class 4 it would be 2950kg.

Just checked the MOT'S (I have all of them for it) pre computer MOT it was tested as class 4. Since computerised MOT it's class 7, I should have checked! Duh!
