I suppose that you can understand the beaurocracy in so far as if they don't implement a 'if fitted it must work' principle then the MOT inspectors would be open to huge debates as to whether a particular model was fitted with this or that originally and then there would be arguments as to whether it was fitted in particular markets and then imported etc etc etc....................................It wouldn't be just abs, it would be any modification. The principle does mean that I can delete stuff thats too expensive to fix (within reason). A £3000 abs pump on a vehicle thats only worth £1000 is dumb. yet it might be perfect in all other respects and be a completely safe vehicle to use without the electronic gubbins.
