Default Questions for MOT testers

Firstly.. Reverse light.. Do you have to have one?

Secondly.. (and I think I know the answer) If you have door poppers, must you be able to "pop" both doors on a 3dr car from the outside?

Drivers side is fine.. Passenger side solenoid is fucked , and don't have the readies to replace solenoid and MOT it this week.

Reverse light isn't part of the test.

Both front doors need to open from inside and out............

....but it cant be failed if........

the door aperture has been permanently 'filled' as part of a specialised customisation provided that there are no obvious aperture gaps.
