Probably to aid the shoddy cooling system it has.

I bet that has been ragged to within an inch of its life and the oil cap & rocker cover was cleaned just before you got there

Also, all the VOSA check is for is to check it's not a ringer, nothing at all to do with how it's been repaired.

Nice story. Why would a middle ages woman 1) have those alloys 2) those lights 3) that sticker 4) that exhaust?

Her normal weight, teenage son was put on her insurance and drove it around, then crashed it. They bought it back for about £500 and just made a mint

IMHO.
