MOT Testing
An MOT test checks that your vehicle meets the current environmental and road safety standards. Our MOT testers are accredited by the DVSA, this means they are qualified to assess your vehicle against specific safety criteria set by the Ministry Of Transport and will be able to pass the vehicle as acceptable and safe or fail if not.
​
The assessment is based on the condition of the vehicle when it is presented for test. If the assessment criteria is met your vehicle will pass it’s MOT, this does not however mean that every component of your vehicle is in as best condition as possible. The MOT test only checks parts of the vehicle deemed to be essential for basic highway safety use.
​
When is my vehicle due an MOT?
It is important to make sure that the rest of your vehicle is preforming as it should, simple health checks and regular servicing will help to ensure this.
