At 32 years old your 1980 Spitfire counts as an old car.

The problem fogging people's perspective on the issue of retro fitting unnecessary modern fripperies, like a light that goes out to tell you when you've put your seat belt on - I know when I've put my fking seat belt on - is the IVA Bullshit that most other kit car owners have foisted on them by the nanny state.

For us sensible Sammio types, the MOT is a pretty straightforward safety check. Take a look through the document below and see if you can find anything about compulsory handbrake, seat belt and brake failure warning lights because I can't. Oh, and if the brakes do fail you can take great comfort in the fact that a little red light came on as you ploughed into the back of the truck
