Milestones

I would like there to be a separate specific MOT test classification that can be done to verify a vehicle is roadworthy with aftermarket modifications.

I believe the car culture of the UK to be a special one. People gather together that are car enthusiasts and show each other their cars. It’s a mix of creativity, passion and entertainment. To ensure that vehicles that are modified are safe and road worthy, we think it would be ideal to create a specific MOT test that can be done which involved an MOT tester inspecting the modification and ensuring they have been fitted or made in a safe and secure manner.
