Apparently there's some footie game or something...
Went to post this in the National Rally forum but seems only mod's can post there, so thought this the next best place. Now, my kids are telling me that there is a football match on Sunday afternoon, and that we're playing Germany. It'll be on TV, just about the time that Ray would normally be droni...

Ah right. But then, while he'll remember that last time he tested it your car was modded, is he gonna remember it enough that it is still the same amount of modified?plastic_orange wrote:I use the same one.

How does the tester know that it was already modified when it was tested last year?plastic_orange wrote:When my V8 minor gets tested next will the examiner tick the modified box, or as it was tested modified last year, it's not modified further, so tick 'no''?

Re: 'Q' reg, no free tax, and £450 for an MOT!
So - we are not allowed to change our own engines any more ? Where on earth is that legislation layed down ?? No you're still allowed to do what you want - just that you don't necessarily get the right to use it on a public road. And - where exactly will these modifications be picked up, assuming a...

Re: 'Q' reg, no free tax, and £450 for an MOT!
Well as I said I'm happy to be wrong, but your interpretation differs significantly from mine! The way I read it, any modification to the chassis whatsoever puts you in the HIVA camp. Any mod to the bulkhead or the trans tunnel also appears to qualify (which means every one of us with a five speed c...

'Q' reg, no free tax, and £450 for an MOT!
I was quite surprised not to already see a thread on this so thought I'd drop this pebble in and see what ripples showed up. CCW have an article suggesting that the DVLA will now start applying the reg's for modified classics more literally, and that depending on interpretation this could lead to fa...

Image help please!
I'm in need of a digital image of the type seen here - http://engvig.com/pics/NMMK-logo_191x188_90.jpg (obviously I don't need the outer text). I need a very high resolution version, minimum really of 1600px diameter, that's nice and crisp. Needed for current Morris project nearing completion, so ge...

Yes thanks that does help. So basically either van rim will actually accept 185 widths, but the more common ones will need a spacer to stop any fouling at the front (with the rarer type maybe not needing spacing). Is that right? The next question then is what's the middle measurement - 185/??/14. I ...

tyre width on van wheels
I'm going to be getting rid of the Minilites on my Minor and hopefully replacing them with some van wheels but I dont know how wide a tyre I can seat on van rims? My Minilites accept 185/55's fine and I would like something close to that if I can?
