Frequently asked questions
How do I check if a car has an MOT?
Enter the registration. We show the MOT expiry date and full test history from the DVSA, including mileage at each test and any advisories or failures.
When does a car need its first MOT?
In Great Britain, three years after it was first registered, then every year. In Northern Ireland it's four years.
Can I check a car's mileage history?
Yes. Every MOT records the odometer reading, so the history shows whether the mileage has gone up steadily. A drop can be a warning sign.
Is it free?
Yes. The data comes from free DVLA and DVSA services.
