FAQs
- How do I book an MOT at EMC?
Booking your MOT at EMC is simple. You can book online via our website at any time, or call us during opening hours and one of the team will sort it for you. Just have your vehicle registration number ready and we'll find a time and a date that suits you.
- How long does an MOT take at EMC?
A standard MOT test typically takes around 45 to 60 minutes. If any advisories are noted or repairs are needed, this may take longer, but our team will always keep you informed. You're welcome to wait in our comfortable customer waiting area, or we can arrange to contact you when your vehicle is ready.
- What year does my car need to be for an MOT?
In the UK, most vehicles require an MOT once they are three years old. After that, an MOT is needed every year - bear in mind this is a legal requirement. If you're unsure whether your car is due, you can check online using the DVLA's free MOT history checker, or simply give us a call and we'll look it up for you.
- What should I bring when I drop my car off for an MOT?
Just bring your vehicle and your booking confirmation (if you have one). You don't need your V5C logbook or insurance documents for an MOT, although it's always good practice to keep these up to date and to hand. If you have any specific concerns about your vehicle that you'd like us to check, mention them when you drop your car off and we'll make a note.
- What happens if my car fails its MOT at EMC?
If your vehicle fails its MOT, we'll give you a clear, honest breakdown of exactly what needs to be rectified, with a transparent quote for the repairs. You can choose to have the work carried out by us, or take the car elsewhere - it's entirely your decision. If we carry out the repairs, the retest is usually free of charge if completed within the appropriate timeframe.
- Is my car still legal to drive if it fails its MOT?
If your existing MOT certificate hasn't expired, you can legally drive the vehicle to a garage for repairs. However, if your MOT has expired and the vehicle fails, you should not drive it on public roads until it has been repaired and retested (unless driving directly to a pre-booked repair appointment). Our team can advise you on the next steps if this situation arises.
