FAQ's about MOT Testing

What is an MOT Test?

MOT stands for Ministry of Transport test and checks that your vehicle meets the minimum safety & environmental standards to be legally driven on the road.

All cars over 3 years old require an annual MOT test. Your car must pass the MOT test to be legally driven on the road.

What should I do if my MOT is overdue?

It’s illegal to drive your vehicle on public roads without a valid MOT certificate. If you find out that your MOT test has expired you must book a test as soon as possible.

Although you cannot legally drive a vehicle without a valid MOT you are permitted to drive to the test centre where your test is booked.

How early can you get an MOT?

MOT certificates are valid for a year and the expiry date is shown on your MOT pass certificate.

You can MOT a vehicle up to a month (minus one day) before the expiry date and retain the same renewal date i.e. If your MOT runs out on the 3rd March the earliest you can have an MOT is from the 4th February.

Is it cheaper to get an MOT & Service at the same time?

Yes. If you visit our offer’s page you’ll be able to get a discount code to save £15 when you book a full service with an MOT.

Can I wait while the MOT is carried out?

Yes. Most MOT tests take around 45 mins and you are more than welcome to wait in our reception area whilst we carry out the test.  If your vehicle needs MOT repairs then these could take significantly longer in which case you may decide to leave the vehicle with us.

What's checked in an MOT?

Do I have to pay for an MOT retest?

No. Provided your vehicle is retested within 10 working days of the original test then there is no fee.  This applies whether we carry out the repair work or you get it done elsewhere and just bring it back to us for the retest, our retest is always free. 

My MOT has expired, can I still drive my car?

No. It is illegal to drive a car once your MOT has expired.  The only exception to this is if you are driving your vehicle to a pre-booked test at an MOT testing station.
