Chattering to someone yesterday we had a few differences of opinion on the MOT. So three questions for you.
1. Most dealers won't put an MOT on a Motorhome till its sold. So if you test drive a motorhome with no MOT are you risking points and a fine?
2. If you take your motorhome to the testing station a month before your current MOT cert runs out and the motorhome fails. Is it still legal to drive it home, Is your old Cert still valid for a month?
3. If you wanted to extend a stay in the South of France or Spain by say three months beyond your MOT expiry. (still taxed insured, which of course can be arranged over the phone.) Can you make an appointment with a test centre and be completely legal as long as you are travelling directly to the test centre?
