The MOT test checks that your vehicle meets road safety and environmental standards.

You must get an MOT for your vehicle by either:

• the third anniversary of its registration
• the anniversary of its last MOT, if it’s over 3 years old
  

The MOT tests some important items on your vehicle to check that they meet the legal standards. It isn’t the same as having your vehicle serviced and doesn’t check its general mechanical condition.

We are certified to carry out MOTs on Class 1, 2 and 4 vehicles and Motorcycles.

Please note we offer Motorcycle MOTs but not repairs or servicing for motorbikes.
