laws on towing
if you got your licence after 01/01/97 then:
* the trailer AND payload must not weigh more than the towing vehicle
AND
* the total weight of towing vehicle, trailer and payload must not exceed 3.5 tonnes.

As per minis84 and neilg on this one. You dont need doors or even windscreen to pass an mot. You can even have no lights and just a daytime running mot if you needed.
As long as its safe to drive, mot'd, insured and taxed it can be towed behind another car.

daytime mot's are GREAT thats how i got my honda cr on the road, that was FUN
if your being towed i dont think it maters on the condition, why not ask the garage to tow you there, then you can use their trade plates
when my uncle was rebuilding his garages tow truck, they drove it through kingston town centre, surrey between workshops with no windows, no lights and a milk crate as a seat was f'ing hilarious, plus the guy was wearing goggles and a scarf, was the spitting image of biggles (was on trade plates) :tongue: :tongue:
i know that was a side step from the topic but just reminded me of it

Lol, as it suggests jammy!
Think most mot places can do them, not too sure, i'll be able to tell you in a few weeks when i've done my mot testers exams.

If you've got enough duct tape, make your own doors!
