What’s involved in an MOT test?

An MOT is a mandatory vehicle inspection to determine whether or not your vehicle meets certain safety and environmental standards in order for it to be considered roadworthy. It is mandatory for all vehicles over 3 years old and takes place annually.

The MOT certificate confirms at the time of testing your vehicle was deemed roadworthy; however, this does not guarantee that your vehicle will remain roadworthy until the certificate expires. Therefore we encourage all vehicle owners to perform regular vehicle checks to ensure your safety and that of other road users.

How long does an MOT test take?

This is dependant upon the condition of the vehicle, but usually, it takes between forty minutes to an hour to complete. At our MOT test centres, we will take safe care of your vehicle so you can get on with your day and we’ll give you a call when it’s ready to be collected.

Is it safe to bring my car in for an MOT?

At Lindleys Autocentres, our number one priority is the health and safety of our staff and customers. We have now implemented a completely contactless drop-off service to help protect everybody!

Whilst receptions can now be fully utilised, we invite all customers to consider each other’s wellbeing and choose your seating sensibly. Our receptions are very rarely full and will always be well ventilated.

Prefer to drop your vehicle off without coming into reception? We have a contactless service available which helps reduce face-to-face contact.

Please note – Face coverings are not mandatory but we invite you to consider other’s well-being when entering the reception.
