For our car, a Grande Punto, our emmissions test just has to be done every two years, to tie in with our MOT.  The garage organised our emissions test, not sure where they took it but the cost was around 28TL.

Maybe it depends on the type of car.  I would think if you need to MOT it every year, it would need emmissions tested every year as well.

The cost of the test is around 34Tl, diesel cars cost a few lira more than petrol; it takes about 5 minutes. 8)

That's weird Terrie, because ours was literally just done and the garage never said it had to be done every year.  Would it be because you have a 4x4 I wonder? x
