Harlow MOT Garage

MOT Centre in Harlow

You are not permitted to drive and insure your car without a valid MOT certificate. A yearly MOT test is essential to ensure that not only are vehicles on the road are safe for yourself and others, but meet environmental standards also.

How often does my vehicle need an MOT check?

For the most part, cars don't require an MOT check until they are 3 years old but there are exceptions, so please check the Department for Transport's website if you are unsure. An annual MOT check is required annually for all vehicles after this initial three-year period.

My vehicle's MOT has now expired but I have an appointment. Am I allowed to drive my car in the meantime?

You can have an MOT check performed up to a month before the expiry of your current certificate. If your MOT has already expired, you are only permitted to drive your car to the garage for the purpose of the MOT test.

If your vehicle fails its MOT check, we can perform the necessary repairs and re-test it for you, so you won't need to take your car elsewhere.
