When does my car need an MOT?
An MOT (Ministry of Transport test) is a legal annual inspection for vehicles three years old or more. The test checks:
-
The overall safety of your vehicle
-
The level of exhaust emissions
It is your responsibility to ensure your vehicle has a valid MOT every 12 months. Please note:
-
A valid MOT is required to renew your road tax
-
Driving without a current MOT is illegal in the UK
-
All MOTs are carried out by qualified DVSA Nominated Testers
All testing at Cross Garage is completed in line with the DVSA Vehicle Inspection Manual, ensuring your vehicle is assessed fairly, accurately, and to the required national standards.

Drove it to their garage and Davie and his team took care of it really quickly and without much notice. my daughter and I sat in their waiting room and he popped the heating on.
