| Post subject: | Blue slip |
Anyone knows a blue slip place that may not give you a strict assessment when checking over your car knowing it it is just of an older type???? Basically, I have a Mini which is modified with a Swift GTI engine. It had rego on it until 2009 I ran it out (mainly due to having no time to drive it cus of work and other things). Everything was unchanged since I owned this car while it still has rego on it. For a strict blue slip station, I am worried they would pick on (1) in the list below because my tyre sticks out 1/3 (or less) of an inch and the wheels are 13inch with bigger brakes. The engineering cert says smaller wheels and smaller brakes. Checklist 1) Tyres and Mags (Check for Tread and right sized mags) 2) Air Filter (not an aftermarket) 3) Exhaust (occassionally check emission levels - dB levels - I think max 4)can be 90dB) 5) Lights and Indicators (all are working and in order - this includes hazard lights) 6 )Other Electrical Items (this includes things like wipers and horns) 7) Seats and Belts (check if seats are properly fitted and seatbelts are not frayed) 8 ) Engine and Chassis numbers (make sure they are correct numbers) Curb Weight of Vehicle (I think an EXA is like 1100 and something kgs stock) |

Pretty sure a blue slip check is the same as a pink slip but they pay more attention to engine and body numbers. I let my bike run out of rego a few times over winter and the blue slip is no big deal |

That was pretty well it for the MG1100 after it had been out of rego for a few years. For some reason they had to weigh it. And because it changed hands a couple of times with no rego they had to have proof who the previous owner was. |
