Using a 01 Yaris for my driving test?

[Astroclaire]

Hi all, I have my driving test booked for October 3rd, I have been learning to drive in my Y reg yaris for a few months now and want to use it for my test. Does anyone know if I am able to as the examiner obviously can't see my speedo.

Have a look at the following - https://www.gov.uk/driving-test/using-your-own-car

Rules about the car

Your car must:

• be taxed
• be insured for a driving test (check with your insurance company)
• be roadworthy and have a current MOT (if it’s over 3 years old)
• have no warning lights showing, eg the airbag warning light
• have no tyre damage and the legal tread depth on each tyre - you can’t have a space-saver spare tyre fitted
• be smoke-free - this means you can’t smoke in it just before or during the test
• be able to reach at least 62mph and have an mph speedometer
• have 4 wheels and a maximum authorised mass (MAM) of no more than 3,500 kg

The MAM is the limit on how much the car can weigh when it’s loaded. It’ll be in the car’s handbook.

Things that must be fitted

The car must have:

• an extra interior rear-view mirror for the examiner
• L-plates (‘L’ or ‘D’ plates in Wales) on the front and rear
• a passenger seatbelt for the examiner and a proper passenger head restraint (not a slip-on type)
