Tony Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 If this car has an MOT and insurance could you drive it on the road?......Looking at the writing on the signs it's English. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP09 Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 It's not in a condition to meet the MOT requirements (you have to maintain the car - i.e. if the lights are wrenched off, then they need to be replaced). However:- 1) The sign is "Village Gasoline" on the pump - this suggests it in the US - and I've no idea what regulations apply there.... 2) It may be legal in the UK - if you have booked an MOT test and are driving the most direct route to the testing station (but no deviations), then you can drive a car without an MOT. Driving to a repair shop is a bit dodgier - you may have invalidated your insurance by not haveing the car in "a roadworthy condition"...
