MOT FAQS
What does MOT stand for?
At Tyres Northampton, we perform MOT tests and issue certificates from our fully equipped vehicle maintenance and repair centre. But the name of the test required to prove a vehicle’s roadworthiness actually stands for the Ministry of Transport. The test was originally introduced in 1960 when that was the name of what is now known as the Department for Transport.
An MOT test is performed annually on vehicles that are more than three years old. The certificate issued after a successful test is proof that the vehicle is safe — for the driver, their passengers, other road users and pedestrians.
Why do experts recommend getting a service and MOT at the same time?
At Tyres Northampton, we recommend booking your MOT and service at the same time because you’re less likely to forget either of them. In addition, you’ll be able to minimise the time your vehicle spends in the garage. Fortunately, there are often discounts available for people who book an MOT in Northampton with a full service.

You can book your next MOT test at Tyres Northampton, which is a fully accredited MOT testing centre.
Can I wait while my car is tested?
Yes, you can wait in our comfortable service centre, where you’ll be treated to tea and coffee. However, if your test uncovers a problem with your vehicle, there may have to wait longer than expected while our technicians rectify it.
When is my next MOT due?
The easiest way to check when your vehicle’s next MOT test is due is to refer to your old certificate. If you’re not sure, you can use the facility on the DVLA website by entering your registration. If you’ve used Tyres Northampton in the past, we’ll send you a reminder.
