MOT Testing at Lawson Cars Teesside
It is a legal requirement in the UK that if your car or van is more than three years old, it has an annual inspection and safety check. This is known as an MOT test. Issuance of a MOT certificate means that your car meets the government’s road safety and environmental standards set out in the test.
MOT tests can be completed up to 30 days before the expiry date of the last certificate, but the test can only be carried out by approved MOT testing centres. These are government appointed by the Vehicle & Operator Services Agency, known as VOSA.

MOT FAQ
An MOT test will check that your vehicle meets all road safety and environmental standards. It proves that your car is roadworthy and safe to drive. Every car over three years old must get an MOT each year to comply with UK law.
An annual service involves a comprehensive check of your vehicle's condition, and a refresh of essentials such as engine oil, fluid and coolants, and replacement filters, if required. You should get a service at least once a year, but if you cover lots of miles your car might need to be serviced more regularly. Servicing should be completed according to your vehicle manufacturer’s schedule.
