What Is Checked During an MOT?
Your MOT covers a wide range of safety and environmental checks to make sure your vehicle meets the minimum standards required to be driven legally on UK roads.
Depending on your vehicle, the MOT inspection can include checks of:
Brakes and braking performance
Tyres and wheels
Steering and suspension
Lights and reflectors
Seat belts and seats
Windscreen, washers and wipers
Vehicle structure and bodywork
Registration plates
Mirrors
Horn
Fuel system
Exhaust and emissions
Doors and other safety-related components
An MOT is not a replacement for regular servicing.
An MOT checks whether your vehicle meets the required standards at the time of the test, whereas servicing is designed to maintain your vehicle and identify ongoing maintenance requirements.
