The car is a import lnd ,I think ive done all the work required for the mot but not sure on the side lights,indicators on the front bumper it uses a twin filament bulb coloured orange so the side lights are orange then flashes bright orange with the indicator,the car has been in the uk since 2005 and has the previous mot's in london where i bought it so has passed before,UK docs shows its built 1969 G reg may not be a mot requirement with that year,. so do i send it in for a mot or fit a proper side light first.do you think i need to change it ,any help

i think it`s the same problem that american cars had, where the side light had to be separate to the indicator, white lights were only valid to 1965, seeing as it`s got a mot, show it to the tester,

Membership Number: yes, soon

Thanks so 1965 was the cut off ,looks like it should have been changed day one in 2005,il call into my mot guy monday for a chat easy job spliting it and fitting a side light if he is not happy il let you know the outcome

I though i had solved the problem ,i have the UK side/indicator units that is split wht/orange but they are about a inch larger than the clear unit that are fitted and would require cutting the bumper,dont want to do that nice to keep it original

I gave the 130 a 20 mile run today all seems fine,drives well, good oil pressure ,water temp spot on,little bit of fine tuning,set tappets ,exhaust catching somewhere etc nothing major,pleased how well it drives,quite a powerfull car for what it is ,recommend this model if anyone fancys one,fantastic car for something thats over 35 years old,drives as well as a car built in the 80's early 90's
