Here in Portugal is the same in some MOT. :signLOL:
But any police officer can fine you for having xenons without washers and send the car to a special and more complete MOT. The auto-levers aren't so easy to detect just by looking at a passing by vehicle.

Here in the UK (where the OP is) such systems must work if they are fitted.
If they are not fitted then there's nothing to test.
No-one has been failed for anything other than having an incorrect beam pattern.... (to my knowledge of course) :happy2:

Are mainland GB MOT rules the same as ours over here in NI?
Also, what's your plan for getting Xenons? Are you thinking OEM or projectors with a HID kit?
