Frequently asked questions

An MOT test, or Ministry of Transport Test, is an essential annual vehicle check to assess roadworthiness and safety standards. It ensures all vehicles on UK roads are maintained to a certain standard, improving road safety standards in the process.
If your MOT is overdue you must book a test immediately. It is illegal to drive on public roads in and around Macclesfield without a valid MOT certificate.

You can book an MOT online today by entering your vehicle registration and postcode into our comparison site.
You will need an MOT, by law, if you drive a vehicle registered three or more years ago. This means that all drivers of vehicles registered in or before 2020 must book an MOT in 2023.

If your car is less than three years old, you do not need an MOT but you can choose to book one if you wish.
The MOT test includes an exhaust emissions test to ensure that your vehicle’s engine is operating efficiently and producing minimal air pollution. It is part of an international effort to reduce the effects of harmful carbon emissions on the planet.

If your vehicle fails the exhaust emissions test or doesn’t have enough fuel to sit this test, the tester must record an automatic MOT failure.

That way, you get the peace of mind you deserve and can find the best deal at the same time.

Generally speaking, you do not need to take any documents with you to your MOT test. The tester will use the DVLA database to find your existing MOT details and any other information they may need about your car.

If it is your vehicle’s first MOT test, you may need to take the V5C logbook with you – but again, this information is available online so it may not be needed. You will not need to bring this on subsequent MOT tests.

If you have changed your registration since your last MOT, you may want to take documents with you that prove it is still the same car in case the test centre questions you.
Follow the link above to our FREE MOT Checker and enter your registration to receive your complete MOT history instantly.

We pull information directly from the DVLA database to provide accurate results, and you can check your MOT history as many times and for as many different vehicles as you like.
You should get your vehicle MOT tested once a year. This is required by law for all vehicles aged 3+-years-old in the UK. If you are caught driving without a valid MOT on public roads, you can face a fine up to £1,000 and additional penalties for invalidating your car insurance, or driving a dangerous vehicle if it is in unroadworthy condition.

If you’re worried about when your MOT is due, follow the link above to our FREE MOT check and enter your reg to instantly view the MOT expiry date for your vehicle. If it is overdue or fast approaching, you can then book a test in Macclesfield in 3 simple steps.

The penalties for driving in Macclesfield without having a valid MOT are as follows:
• Up to a £1,000 fine for driving without an MOT.
• 6-8 points on your driver’s licence and an unlimited fine for driving without car insurance (as your insurance is invalid without an MOT certificate). You may also face a disqualification from driving.
• An additional £2,500 fine if your vehicle is found to be unroadworthy.
• 3 points on your driver’s licence if your vehicle is deemed to be dangerous.

While the police may only issue you with a £100 on the spot fine instead of any of these more serious penalties, it’s not worth taking the risk.
