MOT test scrapped for Classic Cars

MOTs scrapped for Classic Cars The Department for Transport has announced it is scrapping MOT tests for cars registered before 1960.

The argument for the change is that owners of classic and historic cars have a much lower accident and MOT failure rate than other vehicles on the road.

The TT Coupe now gets the option of the entry-level engine already found in the TT Roadster, which means that once again you can get a TT Coupe for less than the entry-level TT Roadster.
