MOT testing at Halfords

If your vehicle is more than three years old, it will need an annual MOT test to make sure it meets the minimum legal safety and environmental standards required for use on UK roads.

During your MOT, our qualified technicians check key vehicle components, including lights, tyres, brakes, steering, suspension and other important safety-related parts. We carry out Class 4 MOTs and Class 7 MOTs, covering most cars, vans, pickups and light commercial vehicles. Book an MOT near you at your local Halfords garage and choose a time that works for you.

MOT and service packages

Booking your MOT and car service together can be a convenient way to stay on top of your vehicle maintenance. We offer a range of options, including an Interim Service and a Full Service and MOT package. Not sure whether you need an MOT, a service, or both? Our guide to MOTs and servicing can help you choose the right option for your vehicle.

Check when your MOT is due

If you’re not sure when your MOT is due, then use our MOT checker to find your vehicle's MOT expiry date. You can also sign up for MOT reminders on the government website, helping you avoid missing your renewal date and stay road legal.
