MOT

In the UK a car has its first MOT when it's three years old, and once a year after that. Your car requires a valid MOT certificate by law. An MOT test at Servicing Stop can be added for just £18 when booking with a car service. We offer massive savings compared to main dealer prices and your car's warranty is never affected.

Servicing Stop is an easy and convenient way to book your MOT online. We provide great customer flexibility, with free collection and delivery of your vehicle. You have the option to book an MOT with a full service or interim service, which saves you money, or book it by itself with free collection, which saves you time.

Why is an MOT needed?

By law you are required to check the safety of your car once a year if the car is more than three years old. The MOT test is carried out by professional mechanics who determine whether your car meets the minimum road safety and environmental standards. Several checks are done to ensure these requirements are met. Without a valid MOT certificate, you will not be applicable for road tax and your car insurance becomes invalid.

When should I renew my MOT?

You must renew your MOT every year once the car is three years old (from the date it was first manufactured). An MOT is valid for one year. You will need to renew your MOT certificate within a month before your existing MOT certificate expires.

Where can I get an MOT test done?

An MOT can be carried out by any garage authorised as an MOT testing station. Most garages will display the MOT logo (three blue triangles) to show they are an authorised MOT test station. All Servicing Stop garages are authorised to carry out MOT tests.
