Will my car fail mot if i do not have a middle seat belt? i just put in half leather seats but my old seats had a middle seat belt built into the seat, the half leather ones dont, so i just put the middle anchor under the seat, will this fail?

What seats have you put it in?

If you have stuck in the 180 seats you will need to update the logo book to a 4 seater.

Sounds like its an early interior been fitted so it would have had a lap belt originally Wink

Other half of the middle rear belt will be attached to the car the interior came from Laughing

All early 206 use a lapbelt for the middle rear passenger, later 206 have 3 x 3 point seat belts in rear except GTI 180 which is certificated as a 4 seater only.
