As i found out to my cost! I bought the car without a foglamp fitted and when i took it into the MOT station it failed because it was missing! if your car is registered after 1st April 1980 then a fog lamp MUST be fitted and working

As above, reverse lights are not a test item. There must be a rear fog light fitted to the os i believe, there must also be a fog light 'tell tale', eg the switch should be lit up when the fog light is on.

Theres a link in the faq's section to an online mot test book.
