What is an MOT?
An MOT is a basic test on the overall safety of your vehicle, it tests both the environmental and road safety standards to ensure it meets all of the DVSA’s acceptable measures. Checking the condition of the lights, brakes, mirrors, seatbelts, driver’s view and more.
This test will take around 45 minutes to an hour to perform. The MOT examiner will not check the engine, clutch, or gearbox. If you would like these to be checked, then we would recommend having a full service and MOT booked at the same time. This could save you money in the long run because it means you won’t forget to book in either of them and it could save you a trip to the garage.
How long can I drive without an MOT?
It is illegal to drive without a valid MOT certificate. There is a myth that there is a 14-day grace period, but it is just that, a myth. Should you be caught driving without a valid MOT, you could be fined up to £1,000 and receive three points on your licence.
You can book it a month (minus a day) before your certificate expires and keep the same renewal date, which is handy if you are not around to book your MOT around the expiry date. Enter your information below to book your MOT in Garretts Green today.
