MOT TESTING IN WELWYN GARDEN CITY

We carry out MOT testing for Class 4, 5 & 7 vehicles.

Cars over three years old must by law pass a yearly MOT test to show they are roadworthy. An average MOT test takes between 45 and 60 minutes, but there are a couple of other things to take into consideration. For example, if your vehicle fails the test and repairs are needed to be made this will take longer.

Class 4

Class 4 MOTs apply to most passenger cars, smaller vans, and vehicles with a DGW up to 3,000 kg.

Class 5

Class 5 MOTs apply to vehicles larger than standard passenger cars but smaller than commercial lorries, typically carrying more than 12 passengers.

Class 7

This includes larger vans, light trucks, and some pickup trucks with a Design Gross Weight (DGW) between 3,001 kg and 3,500 kg.

Top 5 simple reasons for cars failing the MOT test

Screen wash not topped up. Don’t be caught out by it.
The car was dirty or full of clutter. Clear the mess from the boot/cabin and give the windows and mirrors a quick wipe.
A registration plate problem. For example, the plate used the incorrect type face/spacing, or was dirty or missing altogether.
Stickers on the windscreen blocking the driver’s view. Make sure anything stuck to the windscreen like parking permits is outside the wipers’ sweep area.
Lit-up warning light on the dashboard.

Please check your vehicle as it could result in an instant failure and we might not be able to retest the same day.
