When does your car need an MOT?

If a car is brand new, it’s obliged to have its first MOT after three years. This will go from the registered date, so finding this information out is vital. The following year it will require you to book it in a month before the certificate expires.

What’s involved in the MOT?

The MOT test in Cambridge involves in-depth checks on different components on your car to ensure that it complies with the law and also provides safety for yourself and others around you whilst in the vehicle.

If your car has been successful and passes the MOT test, you will receive an MOT certificate. This will confirm your car has passed its annual test. However, it does not guarantee your car will go all year without damage, therefore, we recommend booking it in for a service throughout the year.
