And I would guess that a car with no MOT will make the insurance void?

Not completely void, you still have third party cover, that part cannot be voided. Other than that, it would depend upon circumstances.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

Just for curiosity,if you had a car on SORN parked on road with a full cover on it,would the DVLA driver be allowed to lift up the cover to check number plate.

I would imagine so. Isn't it an offence to obscure a number plate on a public road?

Yes it is and it carries a £100 fixed penalty.

There’s a house along the road with 4 cars. 3 of which have expired mots, no insurance and sorn markers. 2 have the same numberplates but only 1 is in use and the other has recently been hidden with a car cover. They’re all parked on the street.
