Perhaps my comments re: MOT & Tax were a Tad unwise

They were made from my point of view. That of a experienced mechanic .
I often take this for granted & assume anyone looking to buy a car with no MOT would be capable of inspecting it to ensure that it was not in a dangerous condition.
Many minor MOT failure defects do not mean a vehicle is dangerous to drive.

I would never advocate driving a dangerous car on the public highway, even to an MOT test.


The Road Traffic Act makes no mention of " Nearest station " It merely states " A pre booked MOT ". This statement is also repeated on the DVLA web site.

I think the soundest advice is to use a recovery service or trailer your donor.
