I've got 4 point Luke harnesses with the aircraft style buckle and haven't had any trouble with the MOT with them fitted, been on for about 5 years now.

My Ultima is fitted with four point quick release. Five years including SVA.

Ask the manufacturer before buying. My friend was made enquiries at the WILLANS stand at the Autosport show 2008 regarding their latest quick release 3" four point type harness for his Westie. He was told that it wasn't road legal. That situation may have changed by now but it's worth checking.

hi, there seems to be a grey area surrounding this westfield do a 4 point aircraft style harness so that must be legal. but looking at demon tweeks road catalogue the road legal harnesses seem to be buckle type. will give demon tweeks a ring to have their opinion i think.
