Itv
Our car is due it's first ITV inspection shortly.
Has the deadline been extended like the MOT in the UK? I tried to book online with all the Mallorca centres but nothing is available. Any advice would be gratefully received |
Some info here :- https://www.ultimahora.es/noticias/n...cados-itv.html ;)

I had a 3month wait before Christmas for ITV and that was before the virus struck.there are a lot of old cars on Mallorca it seems.

I eventually managed to get a slot in mid July but it took me a week of constant checking. Initially the website was saying nothing before November:eek::eek: |
The problem I couldn't find an answer to when I was looking is -
OK the police may not take action if your ITV is out of date but what about the insurance? If you have a crash without a valid ITV is the insurance valid? |

Best to check with your insurer. |
My car is due it’s first ITV in April. Can anyone tell me, is the Inspecciones Technicas document given to you at the car’s first ITV? Websites I’ve seen suggest you need to provide it along with the Permiso de Circulacion and Insurance Receipt when taking the car to the test centre.
|
I would love to know the answer to this also.

This was the first inspection for this car and all I took were the Permisso de Circulacion and insurance documents and proof that it had been paid. Cost was €21.10 which is much lower than I remembered from before, although this was a petrol car whereas previously it was diesel. You can pay online or by bank card. No cash. Inca ITV was very busy and the queue started back on the road. It is good to be early. Although the inspection took about 20 minutes the whole process took 2 hours. Lots of waiting around. No one spoke English All done for 2 years |
Thanks so much for that information.....that’s really useful and much appreciated.
|
Alcanadakid, could I ask you what the procedure was when you arrived. Go to office first? Join back of queue and wait? Are there loos at the Centre? LOL. I’m really grateful for your feedback.

As far as I am aware there are no loos but I may be wrong. |

Ideally you should arrive and park in the parking area before going to the office, but when I went that area was full, especially with lorries. I dont think there are any loos there, and they were very particular about masks as the told me to replace mine with one that they gave me. |
Thank you both so much. I don’t need to do this until April but was mightily confused. Fingers crossed.....I’m sure it will be fine and your advice has been invaluable. Cheers.

It was the first time I had done this myself and it is fairly straight forward. Just allow about half an hour before your time slot to get booked in. TBH I was surprised mine passed!!
|
Just failed.
Theres a new requirement been introduced this year to be aware of. Both tyres fitted to the same axle have to be the same make and speed rating so the tyres I had on last year which were ok then are not ok now! |

If you look at the weight of a car, and the forces acting upon it, each tyre actually only has a relatively tiny contact patch.....absolutely not worth taking chances with. |

Good evening,
Google will reveal all. To save you time, it has been obligatory for years, and according to a Spanish friend, in Spain as well. |

Whilst not being pedantic, the UK Gov website gives instructions for MOT testing and the only restriction is that cross ply and radial tyres must not be mixed on the same axle.
Mixing of other tyres is allowed.Even standard and runflat tyres are allowed on the same axle, although it is not recommended.There is no mention of mixing tyre makes or speed rating. I am not disputing the wisdom of using the same tyres on the same axle, just pointing out the legal position |
