Cheap MOT pass...always a good one.

Mine failed MOT when i got my car, one bald tyre and blowing exhaust too. Got a part worn tyre to get me through, and bandaged the exhaust !

Not sure exactly on the law's with lights

But i know for defo that you can only have white, and orange on the front of a car, (yellow headlight are allowed for european / imports) and red / orange on the back (except reverse obviously)

thats why neons etc are not allowed on the road (by law) as most of them are colours that are not allowed on the road !, purple / blue / green etc

What about starlet turbo's with green GT Badge as mine passes every year and buggers in blue if they chatch me (norm just a poor little astra and not gona stop for that, now a triffic cop with camra V6 omega or R volvo is a different story ie the camra!)

I have a roll up roll down lock up where car is norm kept so there not gona find me!He he he

but they give me a retest ticket thing the M.O.T bloke takes my money and say the copper talking out his ***** and give me new slip thing for them.

I think its just to wind me up be means I go so often that I now get realy cheep mot's! how £15 sound!

by law the sidelights have to be white or yellow but most mot stations overlook them, and yes the only add on light you can put on rear of car is red, your not allowed to add orange lights to the rear, a little green gt Badge isnt gonna give off as much light as a neon tube so no one will bother with it, but if it has the power to distract from brake lights then its a worry!
