MOT Nottingham

The UK government makes it mandatory for most vehicles over the age of 3 years to undergo an MOT test every year. This comprehensive test includes inspections on different car components to determine if your vehicle meets the road safety and environmental standards. Driving a car with a failed MOT can result in hefty fines and penalties.

As a DVSA approved MOT test centre, Bar Lane Motors performs MOT Nottingham to the highest standards. Our certified testers check the essential car components to ensure that you are ready to hit the road.

How Do We Perform An MOT Nottingham?

Bar Lane Motors conducts the test by inspecting the following vehicle components:

Please note that an MOT is not the same as car servicing. However, we offer car servicing options as well.

Upon inspecting these components, our technicians will determine whether your vehicle has passed or failed the test. We also offer pre and post MOT repairs along with a partial re-test.

Note: You will have to take the retest within 10 working days.

Also note: If your MOT has expired, you are legally not allowed to drive and park on public roads. The only exception here is if you have already booked an MOT and are on your way to the test centre.

Types of MOT Certificates

As mentioned earlier, after checks on the different car components, our technicians will provide an MOT ‘pass’ or ‘fail’ certificate, namely:

VT20: This is the pass certificate. We issue this if your vehicle passes the test without any major or dangerous problems. It will also pass with minor faults.

VT30: This is the fail certificate. We issue this if your vehicle shows a major or dangerous issue.

An Overview Of Vehicular Issues In MOT Nottingham

As per the DVSA regulations, a vehicle exhibits the following issues upon which the pass or fail certificates are extended:

Dangerous: Vehicles with dangerous issues will immediately fail their MOT test. Dangerous problems in a vehicle are potential threats to your and others’ on-road safety.

Major: Note that major issues also lead to immediate MOT failure. Such issues must be immediately addressed and rectified to drive on UK roads.

Minor: Your vehicle will pass with minor issues. Minor defects indicate that the problems with the vehicle are not severe enough to hamper your on-road safety immediately. However, we still recommend you address these issues as soon as possible to avoid further damage and expenses.
