The last car we bought had a 5 year warranty, but it still needed an official MOT at 3.

Of course, but not my point. New cars have to be scrutinised in order to maintain the warranty. Is that not sufficient?
Was the same in South Africa but it was the responsibility of the new owner, not the seller.
No.
Nobody is obliged by law to have their car inspected by a dealer, and to have faults rectified.
The masses need to be kept in their lane. Governments don't want us to spend less (capitalist model and all that) and they can't tax us significantly less (where would the £££ come from) so instead we get bluster and waffle ... from ALL parties. Easy when in opposition to say 'things would be so much better under us' when in reality there are only so many ways to slice the socioeconomic cake.
They are obliged to have it maintained in accordance with the manufacturers specifications to maintain the manufacturers warranty. Anyone can do it as long as it's done to that spec using service parts of equal or better quality. How they would prove the quality of parts in the vent of a warranty claim, I wouldn't know.
one of which is to let billionaires and multinationals off lightly.
another would be to require them to pay their fair share.
They are not even 'obliged' to have it inspected by a dealer. Nobody mentioned 'by law' except you. Might as well said 'by order of the peaky blinders'.
It'll never happen, not across the patch anyway. In their defense I understand some (many?) do pay their fair share e.g. Denise Coates of BET365 however all that stuff aside, something has gone seriously wrong (or right depending on your view) re the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. I can't remember the numbers and can't be ar5ed looking them up, however I read something a few weeks back re directors pay vs worker pay. x decades ago they earned on average 8 times more than their staff, now it's 30 times more, or something like that. If anyone thinks that's fair then they have a different take on it than me.
Motoring org are against any such move just like me.

I think you mena serviced as in accordance with the manufactures specs in order to retain their warranty.
Anyone that has never had a brand new car or one that falls within the remaining manufactures warranty, you have to have it serviced as mentioned about but this service could be carried by anyone as long as you have the evidence EG recpeits invoices etc.
MOT's ideally should be carried our every year or 12k miles whichever comes first.
