The MOT Test is a time many classic owners dread. I have just got my GT4 through at the third attempt thanks to some nifty interpretation of the regulations.

One of the things it failed on was that the hazard lights didn't work unless the ignition was on.

Thanks to this site: www.motester.co.uk/qanda.html

I was able to get round it by removing the hazard light switch. Pre 1986 cars aren't required to have hazard lights, but if they do have them they must work according to the guidelines.

I thought I would start a thread on MOTs because I'm aware that there a quite a few workarounds for the older car, but they're often dependant on the year.

So has anybody else got any other workarounds?
