We'll be inspecting everything from the brakes and fuel system to the lights, exhaust, seatbelts, windscreen wipers, horn, steering and suspension, mirrors, doors, bodywork, wheels and tyres.
Whilst the test could flag up serious issues that could require expensive remedial work, many cars actually fail for very minor issues that are easily preventable. A good way to ensure your car passes its MOT is to have it
serviced regularly. A service will pick up those minor issues before they develop into more problematic ones, and will decrease the likelihood of any unpleasant surprises when the test results come in.
