These Regulations further amend the Motor Vehicles (Type Approval for Goods Vehicles) (Great Britain) Regulations 1982 so that the vehicles to which the Regulations do not apply include an agricultural motor vehicle instead of a land tractor. This amendment follows amendments to the Motor Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1978 (S.I. 1978/1017) made by the Motor Vehicles (Construction and Use) (Amendment) (No. 7) Regulations 1984 (S.I. 1984/1809).
