Wiper don't always park ~ MOT fail!

Series 1 and 2 with individual motors can't fail for a non working motor as you can manually operate the wiper blade from the drivers seat (nothing in the rules says it has to be electric!). Doubtless it'd confuse some testers not experianced with old vehicles but if you won such a machine its not a bad idea to pick your MOT station carefully - I use one that regularly does classic/vintage machinery so knows how to test them properly - I get a fail if I deserved it, not when I didn't.

Can someone tell me where I can check the speed rating of my tyres please?

Appeal test booked for this Wednesday.......

on a similarl wiper subject, will my disco fail if the passenger side wiper doesn't work?
Hopefully I can fix it before the test but until I take it apart.....
driver side ok, but nearside just moves up an inch then flops back down
