Ric Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Hi fellas just had my supra in its first MOT while owning it The only thing it failed on was the HID's apparently too blue (i have the 8k variant) Perhaps noting for people with mots soon, put your normal bulbs in just for the mot to save hassle Luckly i had my old bulbs in the glove box, quick 5 minutes, and im passed with flying colours God i love these cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supragaz Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have had Supras for the past six years and not once has one of them failed an MOT, even on the slightest thing. These cars are the most reliable I have ever owned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Got mine done the other week, I asked the bloke if HID's were OK for the MOT and he said 'what are they then?' I said don't worry mate and it passed OK;) It's always passed fine in the six years, no issues but as it had been laid up for months and not had a proper clearout it came up with fail on the emissions ! After they tried it several times he suggested giving it a blat up the road. I took it down a few private roads ( ) for 15/20 mins and took it back and it then went through fine:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
