MOT

[DennisTheMenace]

Just booked the ace in for an MOT on tuesday and i have to take the reg documents in , why ?? the rest of tuesday will be on the back wheel cos it will pass oh !!!!!

Weird. Do you think they check the Engine/Frame number on your docs against what actually on the bike?

[bimsb6]

prob to make testers life easier when inputting data (just copy v5)

well mine was done from the frame & the muppet got 1 digit wrong I now have to fill in a sheet of details for the DVLA and hope that they don't make me have to have a retest

I've never had to take in a V5 for a vehicle MOT. Sounds a bit odd to me?

I had mine MOT'd on Thursday, didn't need the Documents, BTW the new 'improved' VOSA on-line MOT system was down all week so I got an 'emergency MOT certificate' original to follow by post when back online.

The tester had stopped taking bookings for MOT's until the system is back online and he's caught up otherwise he'll have a mountain of paperwork and postal costs to sort out.

And the price has gone up to £23.80, well somone's got to pay for the new 'efficient' system.

For a car MOT you have to take your V5, so I'd guess it'll be the same for bikes, either now, or pretty soon. All to do with the new security anti-theft regulations.
