The Motor Vehicles (EC Type Approval) (Amendment) Regulations 2006
These Regulations amend the Motor Vehicles (EC Type Approval) Regulations 1998 (SI 1998/2051) (“the principal Regulations”), which set out the procedure and technical requirements for the type approval of what the Road Traffic Act 1988 terms “light passenger vehicles”. Generally speaking, these are passenger vehicles with less than 8 seats (not including the driver’s seat) regardless of their maximum weight.
