Compare MOT Centres in Plymouth to Book the Best Deal Before Your MOT Expires To Avoid a Fine.

Is your car's MOT due? If so, you must book an appointment at a Plymouth test centre before the expiry date to avoid any problems. The test checks whether your car meets road safety and environmental standards, and you will be prosecuted if driving on the roads when your MOT has expired. The only exception to this rule is if you are driving it to a garage for MOT repairs or to a pre-booked MOT test.

Make sure you avoid the risk of missing your test date by booking your MOT well in advance using our comparison tool. What's more, the MOT cost will vary for each garage so comparing instant prices is the best way to save money and ensure you are getting a great deal on your test.

FAQs

What is an MOT Test?

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.

Is it Cheaper to Book an MOT and Service Together?

Many garages in Plymouth offer a discount on their MOT price when you book a car service at the same time. That means booking an MOT and service together can make it much cheaper to keep your vehicle in good condition - so long as you choose a garage that offers a great deal.

Should I Book an MOT and Service in Plymouth at the Same Time?

You can see several benefits when you book your MOT and service at the same time. These include:

• Convenience. Booking an MOT and service at the same time means your car gets the right maintenance without you finding time for separate appointments. This keeps your car on the road for longer and ensures your life stays on track. 
• Lower Cost. When you book an MOT and service at the same time, you may be able to secure an even lower price. Many garages offer an MOT discount when you combine it with a car service. Plus, the more thorough the service, the bigger the discount can be. Compare garages in Plymouth to see how much you can save on your car maintenance.
• Reduced Chance of Breaking Down. An MOT pass certificate ensures that your car is legal for the year to come, but booking a car service at the same time offers even greater peace of mind. It is far more detailed than the MOT test, so you get a better picture of your vehicle’s condition if you book them both at the same time.

If you’re looking for the above benefits from your car maintenance, then you should book an MOT and service in Plymouth at the same time. Enter your reg and postcode to compare garages near you and book the best deal.

What Do I Do if My MOT is Overdue?

If your MOT is overdue you must book a test immediately. It is illegal to drive on public roads in and around Plymouth without a valid MOT certificate.

You can book an MOT online today by entering your vehicle registration and postcode into our comparison site.

What Do I Need to Take To An MOT Test in Plymouth?

You do not need to take anything except your car to an MOT test. The tester will use the DVSA database to find your existing MOT details and any other information they may need about your car.

You may wish to provide a locking wheel nut in case any repairs are needed to the wheels or tyres.
