When Does My Vehicle Need an MOT?
An MOT (Ministry of Transport) test is a legally required annual inspection for vehicles over three years old. The test is designed to assess:
- The overall safety and roadworthiness of your vehicle
- Compliance with exhaust emissions standards
Vehicle owners are responsible for ensuring their MOT remains valid at all times. Please note:
- A valid MOT certificate is required to renew your vehicle tax
- Driving without a current MOT certificate is illegal in the UK
- All MOT inspections are carried out by qualified DVSA Nominated Testers
At Cross Garage, every MOT inspection is completed in accordance with the DVSA Vehicle Inspection Manual, ensuring your vehicle is tested fairly, accurately, and to nationally recognised standards.
