Hi just wondering if anyone could put up a blue slip checklist? I know the obvious things,leaks,suspension,Tyres,brakes ect. But wondering about rust as I've got a small amount in my xf ute. Also I bought it with a sports steering wheel. Will I need to change it?

sports steering whill will be fine proving its not really small, they can be fussy with rust, also depends where the rust is and how bad..

i dont think it will pass with a rust section that big, a small bubble might be ok though..

seats must be ok, no rips or metal showing, seat belts must retract and cant be fayed..

I have put seat covers over a few of the cars I have owned before a check, as long as the person doing the check isnt stab by any wires you should be fine

All lights have to work,
All seatbelts have to work and have no sepperation.

All door handles have to work, inside and out.

Brake pedal ruber can not be worn through to metal.
Must have correct fuel cap.
Brake master cylinder can't be leaking.
Must have battery tie down.
No oil leaks, PowerSteer, auto, diff.
Engine mounts must not be torn.
All bushes in good order.
All tyres more then 1.5mm tread across the surface.
Ball joints,Wheel bearings, tie rods, rackends no more then 3mm freeplay.
Shocks in good order and not leaking.
All rubber brake hoses, not to be cracking showing canvas.
NO rust holes. Basically if you can poke a screwdriver through it it needs to be fixed, save yourself the hastle and bog it up.
No cracks on drivers side of windscreen or only allowed I think 2 bullseye chips smaller then 15mm anywhere on the screen.
Tint has to be clean, not badly bubbled.
And usually the vehicle must be close to standard.
No less the 100mm from the ground, 2 mufflers and cat in the exhaust, decent sized wheels, correct coloured lights ect ect.
And it's gotta pass a brake test and not veer or pull under heavy braking.
Have fun.
