Title: Ed30 First MOT
Post by: WaLLeMs on October 02, 2016, 05:38:21 pm

Had this beauty for a year now and never ever had a mot done before. A little scared

Done pre checks and noticed this.

That's perished and I think an advisory as it's just a bump stop.
Get them replaced asap anyway.

Cheers lads... Googled a little and found this MOT UK car and vehicle MOT information equipment car servicing parts and spares - suspension says under "how to inspect" "A missing bump rubber is not a reason for rejection" - that seems like a fairly definative "no it isn't" to me

Mine were similar for a couple of years, but were never noted as an advisory.
