  1. Complete Guide to Checking Your MOT Status and History If you own a car, you will be aware that the MOT (Ministry of Transport) test is an annual legal requirement to ensure your vehicle meets the minimum safety standards. Without a valid MOT, it is illegal to drive your car on public roads in the UK. Therefore, it's important to keep track of your MOT status and history to avoid any legal consequences or fines. In this article, we will provide you with a complete guide to checking your MOT status and history. We'll cover everything you need to know, including how to check your MOT status, how to check your MOT history, and what to do if your MOT has expired. How to Check Your MOT Status Check MOT status is quick and easy. All you need is your car registration number and the date of your last MOT test. You can check your MOT status online using the government's official website, which is a free service. To check your MOT status, go to the government's website and enter your car registration number and the date of your last MOT test. You will then be provided with your MOT expiry date, the date of your last MOT test, and other relevant information about your vehicle. If your MOT status shows that your MOT is still valid, then you can drive your car legally on public roads. However, if your MOT status shows that your MOT has expired, then you cannot drive your car until you have renewed your MOT. How to Check Your MOT History If you want to check my MOT history, you can do so using the same government website mentioned above. To check your MOT history, you will need your car registration number and the make and model of your vehicle.

  2. Once you have entered this information, you will be provided with a detailed list of your previous MOT tests. This will include the dates of your previous tests, the mileage of your car at the time of the tests, and whether your car passed or failed the tests. What to Do if Your MOT Has Expired If your MOT has expired, you must get your car tested and pass an MOT before you can legally drive it on public roads. Driving without a valid MOT can result in a fine of up to £1,000, so it's important to get your car tested as soon as possible. To get your car tested, you will need to take it to an approved MOT testing station. You can find your nearest MOT testing station on the government's website. Before taking your car to the testing station, it's important to carry out some basic checks to ensure that your car is roadworthy. This includes checking your lights, brakes, tires, and steering. If your car fails the MOT test, the testing station will provide you with a list of the repairs that need to be made before your car can pass the test. In conclusion, checking your MOT status and history is a quick and easy process that can be done online using the government's official website. If your MOT has expired, you must get your car tested and pass an MOT before you can legally drive it on public roads. Remember, driving without a valid MOT can result in a hefty fine, so it's essential to keep on top of your MOT history checker.
