Compare Andover MOT Centres & Book an Appointment At the Best One Before Your Expiry Date to Ensure Your Vehicle is Road Legal
If your car is due an MOT test, you must book an appointment before the expiry date to continue driving on the roads around Andover. The test checks whether your car meets road safety and environmental standards, and you will be prosecuted if caught driving without a valid MOT certificate.
The only exception to this rule is if you are driving it to a garage for repairs after a failed test or to a pre-booked MOT.
Book your MOT well in advance to avoid the risk of missing your test date. You can book up to 12 months in advance through our online comparison site and find the best value for you on an MOT near you in the process by comparing deals.

Frequently asked questions
You can book an MOT online today by entering your vehicle registration and postcode into our comparison site.
If you book your MOT early, you get more time to fix any faults and ensure your car is still legal to drive on UK roads. However, if you book your MOT earlier than a month in advance, the expiry date will become the date of your most recent test.
If you are caught on a public road without a valid MOT certificate, and you canāt meet the above criteria, you can be fined up to Ā£1,000. There is a further Ā£2,500 fine if your vehicle is found to be unroadworthy. You will also receive 3 points on your driving licence if it is deemed to be dangerous.
Driving without an MOT certificate also invalidates your car insurance. This brings an unlimited fine, potential disqualification from driving and 6-8 points on your licence.
You may wish to provide a locking wheel nut in case any repairs are needed to the wheels or tyres.
While you can book an MOT at any registered test centre in Andover that displays a sign with three interlocked white triangles on a blue background on their premises, this doesnāt guarantee the most reliable option. We would always recommend comparing all your options before deciding on the best one.

With BookMyGarage, you can book your MOT online in just a few clicks. Thereās no need to wait for local garages to open to phone them up and compare deals manually ā you can do it all in one place, 24/7, 365 days a year.
You will have to pay an additional fee for the repairs, which the garage will quote you for before beginning the process.
If you wish to complete the repairs yourself or take your vehicle to a different garage for the repairs, you must return to the original garage within 1 day for a free retest or 10 days for a partial MOT retest. This costs less than the initial MOT price.
If you take your vehicle to a different test centre after completing the repairs, or return more than 10 days after the initial test, you will need to pay the full MOT fee again.
You may only take your vehicle away from the original MOT centre if:
ā The MOT certificate from the previous year is still valid
ā No ādangerousā faults were recorded during the failure
ā Seats & Seat Belts
ā Warning Lights

However, you donāt need to hang around during the MOT. If you have other things to do, you can drop your car off and return later in the day to pick it up when itās convenient for you.
If your MOT has expired, you can only drive it to a pre-booked MOT test.
You can choose to sign up for our dedicated MOT reminder service in Andover by entering your email address into the box above. We provide an MOT reminder 4 weeks, 2 weeks and then 1 week before your expiry date to ensure you book your appointment in plenty of time.
