[QUOTE="Graham Smith, post: 33246"] The problem is, if there had never been an MOT test, and the government suddenly introduced it, then there would have been uproar with people suggesting the demise of the world. On the other hand, as is the case now, the government have taken advice (unusual in itself) and have now decided to remove a layer of red tape, these old vehicles don't need to take a yearly test (presumably because so few of them failed it). Similarly, many people seem to be totally against this idea. Whichever government's in power, they're never going to please 100% of the people 100% of the time. It's called democracy gentlemen - if you don't like what they've introduced, go to your local MP and give him your point of view. I for one however, will still be taking my bike for a yearly voluntary test. Graham PS - Perhaps David Cameron should go to see Rupert Murdoch to ask him what to do! [/QUOTE]
