Found this on the web - hope it helps "If you have a car which is more than 4 years old, at two year intervals you have to pass your 'Revisione'. The cost is about €50 euros. The REVISIONElasts about 30 minutes and the following SHOULD be checked: Documents of the vehicle Registration plates Vehicle Identification Number Brake efficiency Exhaust emissions: Carbon Monoxide (CO); Hydrocarbons (HC) Lighting equipment, stop lamps, reflectors and direction indicators Driver's view of the road: Mirrors Wipers and Washers Windscreen Seat belts Tyres Exhaust system Doors Horn Steering Vehicle structure Presence of spare wheel; warning triangle Lights Brakes Tyres Exhaust emissions Horn" The article went on to say that in practice, often only a cursory check of lights, brakes etc is made

The Revisione at best round here seems to be .... switch lights on, beep horn, check boot for triangle, look at vehicle documents and turn on wipers. Rub of chin whilst he looks around car..... you give him 60 euro and on your way in 10 minutes...

Took my car for its revision. It took longer to fill out the paperwork and receipt for payment than it actually took to 'revise' the car. However, when you see some of the wrecks that travel around; particularly in rural areas, are you surprised? Nothing to do with this topic, however; Always makes me smile when we see the very elderly couple; plus at least one dog; crammed into the cab of an Ape on their way to market / Mass, oblivious to any other vehicle on the road.
