MOT question no windscreen
Hi all
My car has been MOT'd at the same place for the last 10 years, and always with a windscreen wipers and washers
however ive taken the windscreen off, and probably wont refit it for a couple of weeks, as the screen wiper motor is buggered
when I have the MOT done, will it mention no screen fitted, and if it does, will this cause me any hassle with the BIB, if I refit it at a later point
?

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

If the windscreens not fitted it can still be tested remove wiper arms etc if the wiper spindles are still on the car make some little covers for them
and you should be fine. You can refit at a later date as long as the wipers clear the screen and the washers work your all legal so that's ok

windscreen
Hi,
All answers correct you only test vehicle as presented same as if it only has one seat fitted only needs one seat belt.
I have been a tester for approx. 20 years so many rules have changed but the basics remain the same.
Cheers Mike

You do not need a windscreen or wiper system to use the car on the road or to MOT it, BUTwhen you refit the windscreen you need to have the
wiper system functioning otherwise using the car on the road is a road trafic offence that will cause hassle with BIB
Never under estimate the ingenuity of an idiot!
