  1. Forgiven. I had to go to wikipedia myself to spot the badge on the grille not the bonnet and the lack of C pillar vents and I've got three EAs. The thing that made me check was the radiator overflow tank. EAs don't have the same one as EB onward.

  2. How'd you manage to find one with such low ks on it? Thought I was doing well to get one with 240 odd thousand on it four years ago. Also how is it so high in the before lowering picture? Like it's lifted. Pretty sure none of my three have been that high.

    Plus they are removing the need to go for a MOT (wof) on any car older than 40 years old.

    "oh great! no more horrible test for my old car" say the people who do limited mileage and look after their cars..  (limited mileage which also happens to be a bad thing for old cars, when often stored over winter, brake seals weeping etc etc)  

     IMO its a fucking stupid decision. I'll always want a system where at least once a year my car is checked over by someone else for safety!  Not only does this ensure thatthings I might have missed could get spotted but it also means that every other tit out there has had the same check on their car.

    What WILL happen in the UK is this.  Lots of shitty unsafe cars will now head out onto the roads and at some point there will be a nasty accident.  Apart from the obvious grief that could have been avoided if there was still testing, the public backlash against old cars will grow.

    Damn right. Although as I've said on another forum we both frequent I believe that older vehicles should be tested more often than new ones.
