At the moment in the UK, there are several garages working with older, uncalibrated MOT Equipment, such as garage lifts, headlamp beam testers (HBT), emissions units and roller brake testers (RBT).With upcoming changes to the DVSA regulations likely to impact the garage rights to self-calibrate such equipment many may be forced to consider the removal of such equipment, and replacement with new, connected MOT equipment.However, before committing to this potentially expensive exploit, if it’s still in working condition and the ownership of the MOT Bay has not changed hands recently, you should always consider the lesser cost of calibrating your older equipment.
