MOT tests are required for vehicles that are 3-years and older. This is to ensure your vehicle meets the minimum safety level required by law. AJ Motors & Son are authorised by VOSA to conduct MOT checks at the bargain price of £40.00 incl VAT.

Our authorised MOT testers will carry out a comprehensive inspection of your vehicle to ensure it meets al recommended safety standards. This includes check the exterior, interior, under the bonnet and under the vehicle.

Each test is recorded and you will receive either a test or fail certificate. We will also alert you to possible problems that may become more serious in the future. This enables you to deal with any problems before they get more serious and ultimately more expensive.

It is your responsibility to have you vehicle tested every 12-months if the vehicle is 3-years or older. Failure to do so will result in a fine or worse.
