Unless I have misunderstood the proposals, this looks like nothing more than making it illegal to delete the emissions control functionality that a car was fitted with when new. As such, all it does is to close a loophole.
Have I misread it?
That's how I see it, it's to close off the delete DPF's, EGR's for example that cause MOT fails & expensive bills to replace...but then there's the dodgy MOT centres that will still do it anyway
Every day I see illegal number plates, over tinted side windows, black tail lights, let alone the stuff you can't see, that should all be picked up at the MOT rules now
