story makes me realise why MOTs exist :P sounds like the owner has good fun with that relic, but I wonder is it actually roadworthy?

MOT surely won't check half the things that are wrong with this car though? Shitty starting, busted gearbox? Most 90s supercars wouldn't pass if that was a problem :p

What do MOTs say about antique cars? I've had some really rough old Minis pass the MOT in the past.

Based on what they said, no. Not at all.

Great read.
