Local MOT test for your Ford car


An MOT is a service provided by garages which every car is legally required to have carried out.


A cars roadworthiness will be checked during the MOT as each major component is inspected by a trained professional. A garage has to have authorisation from the DVSA to carry out an MOT as they have to meet the minimum requirement to carry out the inspection.


You don’t need to take your car for an MOT for three years if you buy and register it brand new, however as soon as the three years are up, it is a legal requirement that you take your car for an MOT annually.


Below we have included some useful information on what is checked during your MOT as well as things you can do to increase your chances of passing at the first attempt.
