I know I take 100% responsibility for mine and am more than happy to do so...throughout the whole year...not just the day of its test.


I agree entirely. So does the Government. Plus, the evidence [Road accident statistics] supports that view.

Sorry, I disagree, I have encountered a minority of classic car owners who although well meaning, would be dangerous left to maintain a basic pencil sharpener, then there are the unscrupulous buy, bodge, and sell, merchants.
The MOT is an essential check against these, and for the small outlay a useful set of alternative eyes in case familiarisation sets in.
