Yes it is pain in the ass for MOT now.
This is why I always sell the car before MOT.
I think now on the 2nd hand market ppl are looking for car with no mods on it, unless it is dealer fitted.
no HID 100% fail.

the new digital red light and speed cameras:

Guys, talking about police, I got some tips from a few different channels all saying the same thing: ALL the ORANGE pigeon holes (speed/red light cameras) are in operation and almost ALL the existing radar scanners (including the old top stuffs like 9500 or V1) in the market won't be able to detect the latest model they installed since those cameras no longer emit continuous signal; the new model emits short impulsed signals. This way almost all existing radar detectors would be confusing these kinda impulsed signals as noise and won't issue warning! I have a very recent experience with a red light camera in TKT area that wasn't detected by the detector.

Good news is, not all cameras are the latest model, bad news is, don't know which is which! However, for most of you guys who don't have a built-in UV shield on your windscreen, I was told by the shop there is this latest model of radar detector... I think 65xi or something, can detect this type of impulsed signal.

I am serious, good luck guys. Oh! One of the channels also added, these new cameras are tuned to snap the cars doing even just 1km/h over...
