With over 25 years of experience, we make MOT testing simple. Our DVSA-approved testers check your vehicle to legal standards, give you honest feedback, and can carry out any repairs if needed.
Your MOT is all about making sure your vehicle is safe, roadworthy and meets legal environmental standards. It’s not the same as a service, it doesn’t check the engine or gearbox, but it covers the essentials needed to keep you and others safe on the road.
The standard most common MOT for most vehicles. It applies to cars, small vans, and motorhomes weighing up to 3,000kg.
Designed for larger commercial vehicles, the Class 7 MOT covers vans and goods vehicles weighing between 3,000kg and 3,500kg.
A standard MOT test covers the essentials needed to keep you and others safe on the road.
If your vehicle fails its MOT, it will need repairs before it can pass a retest. You’ll receive a clear list of what needs fixing, and our experienced mechanics can carry out the repairs on-site. Once the work’s done, we’ll handle the retest for you too.
If your MOT has expired, you can’t legally drive the vehicle until it passes, except when bringing it in for repair or retesting. Let us get you safely back on the road, hassle-free.
Not sure if your vehicle will pass? Book a pre-MOT inspection before your test. Our mechanics can go over your vehicle and highlight any issues likely to cause a failure.
This gives you the option to have the work done first and go into the test with confidence. It’s often cheaper than failing and having to pay for repairs and a retest
You can check your MOT status online at gov.uk/check-mot-history or ask us to check it for you when booking.
You can book your MOT up to 1 month (minus a day) before your current MOT expires and still keep your renewal date.
Class 4 MOTs for cars, small vans and campervans cost £45.
Class 7 MOTs for larger commercial vans weighing between 3,000kg and 3,500kg cost £75.
At LAC there are no hidden charges. If your vehicle fails, we will give you a clear list of what needs fixing and a straightforward quote for the repairs before any work begins.
Most MOTs take around 45–60 minutes to complete, depending on the vehicle and whether any issues are found.
Lighting and signalling faults are the most common cause of MOT failures nationally, followed by tyre condition, brake performance, suspension issues and windscreen damage in the driver’s line of sight. Wiper blade condition is also frequently flagged.
If your vehicle has any dashboard warning lights showing before the test, these will be noted during the inspection. A pre-MOT check at our Bootle workshop can identify potential failure points in advance and save you the cost of a retest.
You can only drive it to a pre-booked MOT or repair appointment. Otherwise, driving without a valid MOT is illegal and can result in a fine or penalty points.
We’ll provide a clear list of what needs fixing. You can have the repairs done with us, and we’ll retest your vehicle once everything is sorted, often the same day.
