[Misc] MOT -extension?

[Icy Gull]

I have two MOTs due in early November, anyone know if the Government are giving some leeway this time?

Who knowns - I doubt the Government even know.

Interesting that on the GOV.UK site, the only mention of vehicles is the closing of showrooms and car washes.

From that does it imply that car repairs/services remain open.

Mine was due in October and I had it done, that leeway was imho for those in the first lockdown.

Our two cars are booked in for the 9th and 16th November. Guess I’ll find out tomorrow if they can go ahead.

This lockdown actually seems almost quite lenient compared to the first so wouldn’t surprise me if garages that carry out repairs and MOT’s etc stay open.

So are garages staying open this month?

Maybe they don’t want us riding bikes during the dark and crap weather

Garages are classed as essential surely

IIRC last time they were allowed to work on essential workers vehicles. (Like driving instructors were allowed to teach essential workers, I don't know whether they were allowed to get their hair cut though).

But I wouldn't think we'll have an answer on this lockdown for a couple of days yet.

I am pretty sure they are and I have seen one garage advertise on Facebook that they are open.

That’ll teach you for the temerity of having a holiday

Icy, permission granted, presumably you are hoping for an extension?

 

[LamieRobertson]

Icy, permission granted, but you've confused me.

Same here

I've now edited my reply, still a little bit confused, but hopefully Icy will clarify soon.

If football is deemed essential then pretty sure garages will be allowed to remain open.
