Changes to MOT test

(1/4) > >>

Priglet:
I tried to MOT my 110 today and have found that as of last week I can no longer get a class 4 test because the weight limits have changed and I am now 50kg into being a commercial vehicle :x  :x

It doesn't seem to have been too well publicised as the tester didn't know until the system refused to allow my vehicle to be tested. Anyone else with a 110 station wagon, and possibly other large 4x4's, it's worth checking out which class your motor is before the test is due.

dont talk to me about mot,s my disco failed today as the one life live it sticker was in the wrong place on the windscreen :roll:  i ask you flippin mot man seems to be a stickler for the book,

Rich_P:
You should still have class 4, as it is a dual purpose vehicle!  Ask him to find out the exact details on this particular type of vehicle for the MOT.  It does not require a class 7 test.

EDIT:  Just re-read your post.  What's it say as the max gross on the V5?  The limit is 3,500kg for Class 4 I think.

sleeplessparadise:
The limit for class iv is now 3000kg not 3500kg as previous and you may be over or under depending on whether you have levelled or unlevelled suspension according to land rover. If you have levelled your weight will be 3050kg and if you have unlevelled your weight will be 2950kg according to their weights :wink:

EDIT: was your 110 a van in a previous life? what is it classed as on your V5?

Rich_P:
Mine went through its MOT as 3,500kg no problem and that's with this new computer system?
