An MOT test is a mandatory annual inspection for vehicles over three years old in the UK, ensuring they meet road safety and environmental standards set by the DVSA. It covers checks on lights, tyres, seatbelts, emissions, and more.
Vehicles over three years old must have a valid MOT certificate renewed annually. Some vehicles, like taxis and ambulances, require an MOT test after their first year.
Electric vehicles and hybrids require a valid MOT certificate if they are three years old or more, similar to petrol and diesel vehicles. However, the emissions test is omitted for electric vehicles.
You cannot drive on public roads without a valid MOT certificate, except to a pre-arranged MOT appointment. Driving without an MOT can result in a fine of up to £1,000.
The 10-day rule allows for a partial retest within 10 working days if your vehicle fails its MOT and is left at the test centre for repairs. If the vehicle is taken away, a full retest is required.
As of 2023, the maximum fee for a car MOT test is £54.85 and £29.65 for a motorcycle. Test centres can charge less, so it's worth comparing prices. These fees exclude any repairs needed to pass the test.
An MOT test includes checks on lights, tyres, seatbelts, exhaust emissions, and other components to ensure road safety and environmental compliance. It does not cover engine, clutch, or gearbox conditions.
An MOT is a legally required annual test for vehicles over three years old to ensure safety and environmental standards. A service is a maintenance check that includes part replacements and engine tuning, crucial for vehicle performance but not legally mandated.
