Mud flaps? Not a requirement here. I got told i don't need wheel arches to cover tyres either. Not part of the MOT apparently. Neither is an exhaust heat shield.

Yeah for some reason over here MOT and C&U regs don't really match up that much!

MOT covers the basics. Its starts, will stop, has lights.

I wonder if all of our Zukz would pass an SVA?
