FAQs

Frequently asked questions

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.

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 Rotherham without a valid MOT certificate.

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

How Early Can You Do an MOT?

You can book your MOT as early as you want, but most people choose to book it up to a month, minus a day, before the expiry date. This allows you to complete the same expiry date for the following year. For example, if your car was registered on the 1st of September, you could book your MOT between 2nd August and 1st September to keep the same expiry date.

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.

How Long is MOT Valid?

An MOT is valid for 12 months. This is calculated from the date of your test to the exact same date the following year.

If you book your MOT early, it becomes valid for up to 13 months (the 12 months from your expiry date this year to the following year, plus up to an additional 30 days. This depends on how early you booked your MOT).

Where Can I Find a Reputable MOT Testing Centre in Rotherham?

If you want to find the most reputable MOT testing centre in your area, enter your reg and postcode into our comparison site. We show you all your options in one place, along with verified, unfiltered reviews to help you make the most informed decision. That way, you get the peace of mind you deserve and can find the best deal at the same time.

While you can book an MOT at any registered test centre in Rotherham that displays a sign with three interlocked white triangles on a blue background on their premises, this doesn’t guarantee the most reputable option. We would always recommend comparing all your options before deciding on the best one.

What Documents Do I Need to Bring for the MOT in Rotherham?

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.

How Can I Check the MOT History of My Vehicle in Rotherham?

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.

What Should I Do if My Vehicle Fails the MOT Test in Rotherham?

If your vehicle doesn’t pass its MOT in Rotherham, the test centre will provide a detailed breakdown of what faults were found and what you need to do to fix them. In most cases, the garage will be able to carry out these repairs themselves and complete an MOT retest to ensure you have a valid MOT certificate. This is usually done within 1 day, and the retest is free for most common faults.

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:
● The MOT certificate from the previous year is still valid
● No ‘dangerous’ faults were recorded during the failure

How Quickly Can I Get a Retest if My Car Fails the MOT in Rotherham?

You cannot retest a vehicle until the fault which failed the original MOT test has been fixed. In most cases, the retest can take place the same day, providing the garage has the part your car needs.

You should keep in contact with your chosen garage as they fix your car if you need it retested as soon as possible. However, retest slots do depend on the garage having the availability to carry out the repair work and re-inspect your car so the time it takes can vary depending on how busy they are.

Can I Sign Up For an MOT Reminder Service in Rotherham?

If you want to sign up for an MOT reminder service in Rotherham, enter 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. We may also provide personalised offers and deals in these emails.

If you have booked an appointment through BookMyGarage.com in the past, we will automatically send you generic MOT reminders as part of our Duty of Care to all UK drivers. This is to reduce the risk of you forgetting your MOT and being caught driving without one, which is illegal.

What Are the Penalties For Driving Without a Valid MOT in Rotherham?

The penalties for driving in Rotherham 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. You must have a valid MOT at all times so, if you’re worried your vehicle no longer has one, enter your reg into our FREE MOT checker by following the link above.

Once you know when your MOT is due, you can book an appointment in 3 steps if it is approaching.

Can I Get My MOT Done Today?

You may be able to get your MOT done today/book an MOT on the same day if your chosen garage has the availability to do so. It may also be easier to get a same day appointment/get your MOT done on the same day when the demand is lower.

If you do book an appointment for today/the same day, we recommend contacting the garage directly to ensure they have the capacity to take the booking. While garages update their availability regularly, confirming the booking with the garage will save you additional stress.

Enter your reg and postcode to see which garages in your area have availability for an MOT test on the same day.
