SO, WHAT HAPPENS IN AN MOT TEST?

First of all, an MOT test can be booked up to a month in advance from when it is due. Your vehicle will undertake an MOT test where it will either pass or fail. If your vehicle were to fail the MOT, you will receive a list of things that need to be fixed. Without going into too much detail about how an MOT test works, if you fail, you will receive a ‘refusal of an MOT test certificate’ from the MOT test centre. This will then be recorded on a database that you have failed, if you believe the result is wrong you can appeal against your fail. If your vehicle passes the test, you will receive an MOT certificate from us which will also be recorded on the MOT database. Your mileage will also be recorded to show your current mileage, as well as the 3 previous readings from your past tests.

WHAT DOES AN MOT TEST CONSIST OF?

Slater’s Garage will check for a wide range of things within the vehicle to ensure not only you, but other road users are safe whilst your vehicle is on the road. We will check the condition and operation of different parts of your vehicle, including:

  • Vehicle identification number
  • Registration plate
  • Lights
  • Steering and suspension
  • Wipers and washer
  • Windscreen
  • Horn
  • Seats and seatbelts
  • Fuel system
  • Exhaust emissions and exhaust system
  • Vehicle structure
  • Doors
  • Mirrors
  • Wheels and tyres
  • Brakes

MOT TESTING AT SLATERS GARAGE

The Slaters Garage team have years of experience when it comes to MOT testing, so should you require technical advice on why your car might have failed then the team here will be happy to help. If you would like to know more about your MOT Test, please don’t hesitate to give our team a call today.

We can assist you in the following ways:

  • If you’re bringing a car to us without any current Tax or MOT this is fine, however please ensure that we have a copy of your registration number upon booking. Therefore if you are challenged by the authorities you can prove you are on the way to be tested and that the process is well under way.
  • You are legally well within your right to have your car tested up to one full calendar month before the expiry of the old certificate. Don’t worry if you do this and your car passes first time. All that happens is the unexpired days are added to your new certificate automatically so you don’t lose out for booking your MOT early. This is possibly the safest option just in case there are any issues.
  • If the car you are having tested is three years old and this is the first test, bring the V5 document with you. If you are coming one month early as previously stated we can make sure the certificate is dated to start one year after the 3rd birthday of the car.
