Your MOT expiry date is more than just a number, it’s your deadline to keep your vehicle legal, safe, and insured on UK roads. At Fastlane Autocare - Autocentres in St Helens, we make it easy to check when your MOT runs out and help you book your next test.
What is an MOT Test Expiry Date?
An MOT Test expiry date is the set date of when the MOT for your vehicle will expire. The date can be found on a current MOT certificate that the driver will be in possession of. After the date has expired, your vehicle is no longer road legal. By driving with an invalid MOT you put yourself at a massive risk with fines and penalties.
How to Check When Your MOT Expires
Knowing when your MOT expiry date is crucial for drivers as it makes you road legal and avoids relevant fines.
It is quick and easy to find out when your MOT will expire.
The easiest way it can be found is online by checking the MOT history online through the UK Government's website here.
On the website you can enter the registration number of your vehicle.
From there, you will then be able to access a detailed record of your previous and existing MOT certificates.
Why You Should Act Before It Expires
By leaving your upcoming MOT test late, it can be risky. By booking in advance you can avoid these typical errors.
Driving illegal - From the moment your MOT expires, your car is illegal on the road unless renewed before the date.
More Availability - By booking in advance, it avoids late stress moments and it could potentially save some money in some places. Also, you are almost guaranteed to obtain your preferred time slot.
Book Up to a Month Early
You are allowed to book an MOT test a month early and are allowed to keep the same renewal date.
Which makes your new MOT certificate valid until 13 months instead of the traditional 12.
If you've got the resources available to make this possible then we highly recommend this option as it will save you time, stress and you won't have to worry.

We know things can happen at any given moment and that is why at Fastlane Autocare - Autocentres we are here for you and to help you out no matter what the problem is.
If you have missed the date of your MOT test then call us immediately on 01744 808586 and we will sort something out for you.
