just wundering now, instead of starting a new topic i said id revive an old one, does anybody know if a flip front will pass an NCT ? if i go with a flip front im going to be using the bracing from minispares, but will that be enough for the NCT, ive seen threads on the mini forum and some have said that it passed the MOT so are the two not basically the same ?

It might be best to check with them first.

Have a look at pages 57 to 59 of the NCT manual.
"Fibreglass or similar composite in secondary structure is acceptable."

Will do, even if a complete flip front isnt allowed i could always use a fibreglass front and have the front itself on duez clips and a fibre glass bonnet either on hingeds or bonnet pins
