STUCOS, the point I was making is although in LAW the car has to have levellers etc, the mot is not testing it to see if it is legal, only to see if it passes a mot which is nothing to do with the law, you can pass a mot, then go an get nicked for something on the car which is illegal, washers and levllers are not even MENTIONED in the manual.
Matt Baxter,
I DID read the manual on friday, the rear arb does not even get a mention, so is not even a testable item, therefore it cannot be failed as it doesn't have to pass anything, the ONLY proviso vosa came out with, al though ecently and VERY confused seems to be where a roll bar is fitted, it must work, and be attached securely, not having one cannot be a fail, according to vosa, but as you may know what they are like it could be different next month.
