    drive it to the MOT place! fail it, and you can legally drive it home again!

    you can drive a car to and from a m.o.t station if its booked inadvice. but its a very grey area when it comes to the police. if your driving the car 30 miles to a m.o.t station and the car isnt reg to your home address it may be a bit of a problem.

    as long as its taxed and insured you will be seriously unlucky to get pulled over.

    but if you are on your way to a booked mot, then you will be legal (just dont turn up or if your on good terms with a mot garage, just tell them to book it and you probably wont turn up unless your with police lol.

    and worse case, its only a £60 fine anyway.
