HOW FAR CAN I GO MODIFYING MY TOW VEHICLE?

You might think it’s okay to modify your tourer in a small way, but even minor mods can turn out to be illegal

If you like to personalise your vehicle with accessories or modifications, the laws are more complex than they used to be.

There are a few hoops to jump through to make sure your car is legal to drive on the road if you plan to modify it. Reading this guide could save you the hassle of a defect notice, an expensive fine, a denied insurance claim – or even a crash.

One reason that car mods have more strict regulations around them and are more complex is that modern vehicle safety features are far better and more nuanced themselves.

Regulators don’t want owners mucking around with their cars to the point that these safety features don’t work as they should. An example of this is electronic stability control (ESC); if a modified suspension is fitted, it could affect the operation of the ESC.
