Mirrors are not an MOT requirement.

mine passed with one mirror (my 50 it had no mirrors at all, good job too they were dreadful!) borrowed one of a mate for good measure and it passed easy.
altho looks like you dont need any at all Thinking

Dan, i'm not too sure about mirrors i always thought you had to have at least one (I'm probably wrong). But check none of your lights or indicator lenses have cracks in them as that (depending on MOT chap) is a fail.

remove the mirror for the MOT and replace it afterwards, I think mirrors like indicators only have to work if fitted.
