The person who cleared the owner's garage in France told me that no spare parts, such as RHD headlamps, were found. It's a puzzle because I can't imagine the Rover passing the French equivalent of an MOT with dazzling headlamps. Would I be right?

We'll find out when it's put in for its UK MOT.

A couple of years back you could get away with stick on beam deflectors over here in France.---Not any more now as the rules have been changed and the CT more exhaustive.---( CT--Control technic----ie.--MOT. )


PS. We still call it MOT though it's really the DOT now.


Was "Ministry" and now "Department"-.
