  Is free from excessive corrosion or damage in specific areas and there are no sharp edges likely to cause injury.
• The fuel System

• The exhaust emissions
  The vehicle meets the requirements for exhaust emissions, dependant on the age and fuel type of the vehicle.

  Is secure, complete, without serious leaks and silences effectively.
• The seat belts
  All belts installed are checked for type, condition, operation and security. All compulsory seat belts must be in place.
