An MOT test is a legal yearly inspection for vehicles over three years old. It checks that your car meets safety and environmental standards. At Gladstone Tyres & Autocare, we are a DVSA-approved testing centre serving drivers in Escrick. We carry out Class 4, 5, and 7 MOTs, including motorhomes.
When you bring your vehicle to us for an MOT test, here’s what you can expect:
We confirm your vehicle registration and identification details before starting the inspection.
Our experienced technicians carefully check:
Lights, indicators, and horn
Brakes and suspension
Steering components
Exhaust and emissions
Tyres, wheels, and vehicle structure
After the test, you receive a detailed report. If your vehicle passes, you’ll get a 12-month MOT certificate. If it fails, we clearly explain what needs to be repaired.
If repairs are required, we can carry them out quickly and at a fair price. From small fixes to more complex work, we make sure your vehicle is safe before arranging a retest.
Booking your MOT with a service helps prevent unexpected failures. It keeps your vehicle running smoothly and can reduce the risk of costly repairs later.
You can check your MOT due date online using your registration number. If you’re unsure, our team serving Escrick can help you confirm your date and book your test.
You can check your MOT due date using your car’s registration number on the official government website or call us, and we’ll look it up for you.
An MOT test typically takes around 45 minutes to an hour. However, if repairs are required, this may extend the time.
If your vehicle fails, you’ll receive a list of issues to address. You can leave your car with us for repairs, and we’ll retest it once the fixes are complete.
If your MOT has expired and your car fails the test, you can only drive it to get repairs or to a pre-arranged MOT appointment.
