The Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs intends to create a list of ‘classic friendly’ MoT testing stations, with the eventual aim of publishing it on its website as a useful guide. And our sister publication Classic Car Buyer is inviting readers to nominate their favourite testing stations.

There have been concerns voiced that not every MoT tester is familiar with the rules that do – or, just as importantly, do not – apply to classic vehicles. So if you reckon your MoT tester is something of a classic hero or simply a professional who you’d highly recommend, make sure you tell Classic Car Buyer about them. Send an email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and we’ll be happy to forward all nominations to the FBHVC.
