I suppose without a numberplate or vin they could not known if it had a MOT or not but being in dangerous condition is probable worse than no MOT :rolleyes

Rolling wreck: Battered car with no windows, plates or mirrors pulled over by police

Police have spoken of their surprise that a battered old car with no windows, plates or mirrors was being driven on roads in Cheshire.
The wreck, which had extensive damage to all parts of the bodywork and a unique blue and yellow paint job, was apparently a Rover in its heyday.
It was stopped by Road Policing Unit officers in Crewe.

I think that rather substantial piece of metal at the back with speaker holes in it makes this a 400 series.

And is that an original leather seat with ruched leather or an SEi replacement covered in bin bags :S :laughing2

And if it is an original leather seat, was this a top-spec. model in its day :o
