will i fail MOT with these plates....

[Limca]

its 2moro morning.. ahhhh.

would you fail me for having them.

 

[Big Iain]

wouldnt think so

 

[Limca]

im getting slighty worried. lol

 

[GarethM]

id say no also

 

[cat171]

Are the letters the right size Jay ?? and is there space of 11mm from the letters to the edge of the plate ? if yes to both you'll be fine.
also do they have the bs number on them - not that any mot testers ever looked for it on my cars.

 

[Limca]

what is a BS NO:
the letters are correct size.
only thing is the plates are cut down.

the length of the plates are 17cms long
think standard plate size is around 19cms or 21cms

 

[cat171]

bs number - british standard number, it'll be on the right hand side at the bottom mate.

If it does fail on them you'll have 14 days to get a new set made up any way.
Personally I think it will pass. Let us know if they fail you on them.

They'll pass fine

[jamesy]

he said MOT not rolling roadLOL

 

[Djw John]

Er you need to go on roler to test the braking mate, you never seen an MOT being done?

 

[Limca]

below is what they are meant to do, i got it from the MOT checklist. it doesnt say anything about going on the rollers, but i could be wrong. from what i remember, my car didnt go on rollers last MOT. btw, im going to a KWIT FIT. £35

Brakes
Condition operation and performance (efficiency test). Wheels are not removed during the test. The tester only examined what they can see, reach or feel.

 

[Saxo03]

If the letters are standard British height/thickness then there legal. They look the right size so i would say they are fine fella!

let me have the address of the last place u gt ur mot done if they didnt put it on the rollers. could save a fortune on brake renewals lol.


they put the car on the rollers to test the brake efficiency . both footbrake and handbrake.

 

[Munson]

Every car I've ever taken to an MOT station has been on the rollers.

"Condition operation and performance (efficiency test)" <---- There you go right there

don't number plates have to have the name of the garage and a postcode underneath the main plate for them to be worthy?

 

[Leeshez]

No it will pass. I have had M.O.T on mine with cut down plates

 

[tommyboy]

it'll pass fine

 

[Andyman]

[Mells]

[sh33n]

No I heard this from somewhere as well, not sure if there's any truth in it.

It could be true, a way of regulating who is making correct plates etc.

 

[Limca]

ok he passed me on everything else including plates, BUT i still failed.


my top mounts need replacing. i ordered a set and they will be fixed 2moro.

2 new tyres on the front. im glad ill have cash for all this.

 

[Nafoff]

When I was pulled over for speeding on the M6 Toll one of the officers in the car asked why I had illegal plates on my car! He said they were perfectly readable and issue a ticket but told me to be aware that I might get pulled over with them.

He also told me that the 'euro style' plates have to include the post code of the company that made them!
