What is a Vehicle Modification?
Any changes you make or plan to make to a vehicle's original design as built by the manufacturer, is considered a modification. While there is no law against modifying a vehicle, any modifications made must be carried out to an appropriate safety standard.
Vehicles can be modified for various reasons - some vehicles are modified even before they are registered. For example, someone can convert a four-wheel drive passenger vehicle into a commercial vehicle by removing the back seats and safety belts. Work on a vehicle which affects the safety and/or handling of a vehicle e.g. brakes, steering, suspension etc. must be to a minimum standard and comply with the law.
Other modifications are cosmetic – to personalise a vehicle and make it different to others of its type. Common ones include rear spoilers and side trim, adapted exhausts and tinted windows.
