Not true

The construction and use regulations require the stamps. That is a legal requirement.


VOSA rules for issuing an MOT certificate does not require stamps, but if the can is marked to say it is not for road use, race use only etc. Then it is is breach of the VOSA rules and should not pass a test.

There are no limits on the noise. Simply a subjective assessment that it is no noisier than a comparative model.

However, a well trained MOT tester will accept that a loud can is an essential safety feature.
