MOT from £40+, made easy
An MOT is a mandatory annual inspection designed to ensure that your vehicle is roadworthy and meets certain environmental and safety standards.
Once your vehicle is 3 years old, it is a legal requirement that you book an MOT test for your vehicle every year.
MOT testing is one of the most effective and essential ways of looking after your vehicle, along with car servicing, but how much do you actually know about MOTs?
What Is an MOT?
MOT stands for Ministry of Transport, which was the government department which first introduced the MOT test back in 1960. The test was introduced in an effort to test vehicle safety, road worthiness and exhaust emissions.
An MOT test is issued by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA).
