Technical inspection

Grantley
By Grantley

I've just realised the istimara for both my cars expire next month, while I am on vacation. Can anyone tell me the following;
How old does the car have to be before it needs an inspection (2004 Honda and 2005 Infiniti)?
Will they still fail if there is a scrape on one side?
Is there a grace period for renewal?

thanks!!

I just renew the "istimara" before 3 hours today..

listen bro, car old than 3 years must be inspected + then go for renew "istimara"

Ex: 2006 car will not be checked and inspected throw 2007 - 2007 -2009

if there is a scratch which is obvious and much large it may fails,, Yes

They will give you 45 days free after "istimara expired"

after that you will need to pay more and more ,,

If you inspect the car and fails for the first time..

they will give you a free 30 days witout paying again for inspection..

Hope my answers help you bro

Regards.

Sratches and even mild dents will make your car fail the technical Inspection.But once the police check it out and its tolerable for him,then he would sign ur papers..
