MOT test stations are being inconsistent re testing class for 110 station wagon 300tdi 1996 (5-door: front row, second row plus sideways-facing bench seats)
The vehicle has been tested as class 4 on all the previous certificates I can find including last year's.
When try to book a test at Halfords online it says the class 4 stations can't test it but will allow me to proceed where there's a class 7 station.
Other independent stations also vary.
The most helpful conversation I had yielded the flow chart in the folowing link and he said it would boil down to whether or not the unladen weight was known or unknown.
There seems to be varying interpretation of the "unknown" bit with the same source declaring that
"It is not necessary to search the internet for an unladen weight"
What class does yours test at?
Does anyone know the exact unladen weight of the 300tdi 110sw?
Thank you
