An MOT is a service/test which every car is legally required to have carried out every 12 months. It ensures that your car is functioning, safe and of course legal to drive.
The maximum MOT test price that a garage can charge is set by the Driver Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). Currently, the maximum cost is set at £54.85 for cars and caravans.
If you have bought a used car recently, an MOT certificate from the previous owner will be included in the documents you receive when you buy the car, this will inform you of the next due date. If you can’t find your certificate, the website www.vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk will help you find out when your next test is due. If your car is new, it will be required after three years.
It includes an inspection of the following:
You can check this at https://mot-history.net/. This new government service allows you to check the history of any car from just putting in the vehicle make and registration number.
The most common reasons why cars fail their MOT are:
You’ll be issued with a VT30 Certificate stating why the car failed. There is no time limit before a retest can be booked, and the garage will normally offer to carry out the required repairs. Therefore, you should undertake any necessary repairs pointed out by the garage to ensure a pass certificate.
Your car should go in for its MOT annually, unless of course it was bought and registered as brand new. If this is the case it is only required after three years of its registration, but after that point it should be taken in yearly like other cars.

Very efficient. Did MOT while I waited. Offered refreshment and kept me well informed.
MOT performed promptly at short notice. Very professional and friendly service. Highly recommended.
Very efficient from start to finish, I enquired the evening before for an MOT and was able to get an appointment the following day. Friendly workers and would definitely reccommend this garage!
Can't fault In N out. They really so uphold the name. Your car will be done before you know it. Team were very helpful and couldn't do enough, communicated all the way through and even offer a way to pay over a period not upfront, which was such a relief. I would definitely recommend them as a garage
