| This car on the U.K. E-Bay would not pas the MOT in Australia. The exhaust pipe is too long. The pipe has to finish before the end of the bumper bar but not behind it. I know from experience , had to put 2 inches on to pass... Another nit picker mechanic ..... |

People have died from Carbon Monoxide poisoning caused by fumes from a too short exhaust pipe being sucked into the car. Including a local man known to me. As for too long, the possibilities are obvious (ouch!).
I would say a GOOD requirement for an MOT.
