And there was me thinking the changes only affected later model Diesels with DPFs fitted.
Another thing I have just spotted.
Another significant change occurs if a car fails its MOT for something considered dangerous. In that case, the owner risks a £2,500 fine and six penalty points if they drive away from the testing station even if the car’s MOT still has a few days to run. It means dangerous failures will in effect have to be rectified by the testing garage – with some mis-selling likely as a result – or be towed to another garage, with the extra expense that would entail.
Understandable but choose your MOT centre with care as this could give any wide boys in the game an easy way to drum up work.
