It is time for the MOT surge.

The DVSA have forecast there will be over 3 million MOT tests taking place in the UK during September. Why are there going to be so many MOT tests being carried out in September 2024? Believe it or not it is because it relates back to the Covid-19 pandemic. There are still backlogs of vehicles that have not been tested since the pandemic.

We have been writing a lot about MOT services we carry out from our independent garage. We have been educating motorists about the danger of being suckered into using MOT services and tests being carried out for £5. Only last week did we write an article about a MOT tester issuing 30 MOT certificates without even testing a vehicle.

You have to be very careful when you see an MOT test being offered for £5 on the internet. It may sound to good to be true, but that is probably because it is. Always ensure that when you decide to use a MOT tester that they are fully qualified to carry out MOT test work, and check their reviews online.

The last thing you want to do is go to a garage and your vehicle is given an MOT pass certificate, and your vehicle was not even checked. The whole purpose of an MOT test is to ensure your vehicle is road worthy, for your safety, and the safety of the general public. Safety is paramount.
