I like to read the comments the one by Andrew Puddifer drew my attention he thinks there should be a classic car MOT because New testers don't know about kingpins strange he didn't mention about Trunions laughable 😂😂 whether it's a first TEST vehicles to classics so where does he put me in his opinion ? YOU lot know the cars I've tested over the last 6 years don't want mention every make there is that many

personally i was glad to see the back of that old sh1te.as anyone testing em knew a high percentage of"classics"were substandard crap often from new let alone 30+yrs down the line and the owner always knew you were wrong whatever youd fail it on and im not even gonna touch on broken door handles/dicky switches etc.add that to the fact that not only did they take twice as long but that my last place would reserve em for me on the grounds that i was most familiar with the majority of em combined with the fact that most stations local to us would do their utmost to avoid having anything to do with em in the first place resulting in us getting rather more than our fair share to begin with(testers off sick,equipments packed up,dogs ate our homework,sorry,cant do it for a couple of weeks-PROVED to one presenter bemoaning that no one could test his car with 2 simple phone calls)and yeah i for one was quite happy about the exemption.now if only they would extend it to campers etc.....
