Keeping you on the road
If your vehicle needs an MOT, join the hundreds of thousands of happy drivers who get theirs at a local Halfords Autocentre each year.
The MOT is an annual test of the roadworthiness of your vehicle. It's a legal requirement to drive on the roads and not having a valid MOT could result in a fine and penalty points. An MOT test should take around an hour to complete, and if your vehicle passes will be ready to drive away immediately.
With over 300 test-centres nationwide, there's sure to be one near you.
What do you test in an MOT?
During an MOT, our ATA-trained testers will check the following:
- Lights, lamps and electrical systems
- Wheels and tyres;
- Engine, exhaust and emissions
- Steering and suspension
- Windscreen, wipers and mirrors
The tests carried out in a Class 7 MOT are very similar to a Class 4 MOT; however, the tests are slightly more in-depth for a larger vehicle. Additional checks as part of a Class 7 test include further tests on whether the tyres are suitable to carry extra weight, and brake efficiency tests for additional safety.
You can also read a full run down of what's checked in an MOT in our detailed guide.
What to expect after your MOT
When your MOT test is completed, you'll receive a brand new MOT certificate that's valid for another 12 months. If there's a problem with your vehicle during the MOT test, then our testers will provide information on the fault and what needs to be done to fix it.
MOT faults can be split into various categories, and you'll need to know the difference. Advisories and minor faults won't stop your vehicle from passing but will need to be dealt with. Major and dangerous faults must be fixed immediately. If your vehicle has a dangerous fault, it can't be driven until it's been repaired and the vehicle re-tested.
We also offer FREE MOT reminders- the easiest way to remember your MOT giving you peace of mind!
