Special Notice for testers from VOSA.

"Clarification that the test for a catalytic converter only applies to petrol vehicles..." - at the bottom of page 2.
http://www.dft.gov.uk/vosa/repository/Special%20Notice%203-12.pdf

Plus the bedding in period for the new rules has been extended to "Summer".

Plus the airbag light no longer needs to illuminate.

Plus FIA harnesses now pass.

Plus a clarification of standards that apply to modified vehicles such as rally cars. (It doesn't say what that clarification is).

How much can you legally strip from a car before it becomes a fail?

Carpets..? Rear Seats..? Roof Liner..? A,B and C pillar cover..?
