Hi All, I have been told that a rear fog lamp is not required for my sons 1976 mini, is this true?

[BVY]

If it wasn't manufactured with it it isn't required

I don't know what year they came in. Mine is 77 and doesn't have one...

No fog lamp required, no external door or wing mirrors either.

not strictly true but in this case you are correct. 1st april 1980 onwards needs a rear fog
but as an example some older cars never had washers fitted but have to be retro fitted to pass regardless of fitted std or not

A fog light is required on cars first used after April 1st 1980.
