Quote from: H1GRM on April  8, 2022, 15:03He was not talking about the car as pre August 1975 which I think is what you may be referring to by saying they are no where near old enough. My understanding, possibly wrong was that there were 2 emissions program's to conduct the test (not miss it all together).

Could be all bullsh*t but I have known the guy for 30 years + and would say he is a decent and honest business owner with a very good reputation.

DVSA Emissions Standards
It seems that cars manufactured/registered before September 2002 need to have both CO and (HC)³ measured but from that date onwards only CO is measured. If I've read it right (table on page 12).

Perhaps that's what he's referring to?

Yes my 2 has just had its MOT done and both CO and HC3 were tested but then she was built in 2000 :o

Based on Euro emissions standards. The mr2 is Euro-3

It goes by when the car was introduced, not when your car rolled off the line.

So the GG has gone to her new owner. Sold last week to an existing member.

All the old bits that were replaced with genuine TTE/TRD bits went but I will post my immaculate red indoor cover in the for sale section later.

Happy motoring to all of you.

Crossed my mind.

You guessed correctly 8) 
Greg has done a sterling job looking after the car and protecting it from the elements for the last few years.

Thankyou for giving me the opportunity to own such a great car again

Another one won't hurt  .....

She really is one of the best and I have had lots of fun with her and hopefully enhanced what Steve had already done, albeit to a personal taste. All bits added were genuine TTE/TRD etc.

So pleased she remains in the MR2ROC  :)
