New-style MOT certificate

Aug 25, 2005 30 Replies

Because I know the mind of the Civil Service, and I was pretty sure that if I couldn't see instructions as to where to put the sticker, I must be missing something - and if you check the other posts you'll see that I was indeed missing a form which should have been delivered to me. And I now know where to find the form.

Anyway, how do you know how long I've lived!

A fee is charged for DUPLICATE certificates, but NOT for REPLACEMENT certificates.

A duplicate is an exact copy to replace a lost or damaged original.

A replacement is issued when an alteration is required on a certificate. Either through a mistake made by the MOT tester, or if the vehicle presenter wishes to add time onto the certificate.

Because the last time they stuck it on my windscreen it was bloody annoying and took forever to scrape off.

I usually stick the new one exactly over the old so as to avoid problems removing it.

They're normally peeling off my windscreen by the time they expire.

Why so rude, Conor? Have you never needed to ask anybody anything?

Conor is always right. Unless of course he's wrong when he'll dissapear for a few days and hope everyone's forgotten what a prick he is.

Unfortunately for him they haven't.

Not for the blindingly obvious or that which can be worked out by oneself with a little thought..

No point in him asking if he isn't going to listen to the answer...

I always use the blue sticker. I'd swear the Police pay less attention to the car if there is an MOT sticker on the screen.

Of course, on the Sera it's lost in the sea of Japanese equivalents that I just can't bring myself to remove...
