Would the same apply for a 2003 registered MG 160 TF?   If not, can you advise please.  It's worrying my husband sick that the man from the Prefecture he might say 'non' to his beloved red beast as there is no MG company in the UK now!!

Many thanks............

MG Rover France appointed ABP as their vehicle certification agent in November 2005, so they should be able to supply an EU certificate of conformity for your 2003 MG. 

E-mail them and ask.

Note: type approval attestations for post 1990 vehicles can also be obtained from the DRIRE at a cost of 67 euros.

I have read somewhere that one of the Triumph clubs can issue ctificate of compliance for Triumph cars - I have a TR7 DHC. Does anyone have a contact for the Triumph club in question.

CS, I am sure that SD will reply, but there should be a certificate of conformity in the handbook of your husbands car - so he does not need to obtain anything else, so you can tell him to cheer up.
