    "For emissions purposes only, kit cars and amateur built vehicles first used before 1 August 1998 and Wankel rotaryengined vehicles first used before 1 August 1987 are to be considered first used before 1 August 1975. Kit cars and amateur built vehicles first used on or after 1 August 1998 ("S" reg) are required to obtain Single Vehicle Approval and should be tested to the limits stated on the registration document."



    That is, any car pre 1975 gets the same, visual, test, but anything else is subject to emitions tests.

    Just letting everyone know

    My MoT chap has always insisted on an emission test for my old Pinto regardless of age. I do not mind as I get a good result and I know that my engine is probably running efficiently.
