How to check MOT status.

[Kennysevenfold]

My mum went to tax her car yesterday and couldnt find her MOT certificate, just last years one that ran out in April this year. She also can find her V5.
Now she say's to me she isn't sure if she did MOT her car this year...

Is there any way to check?

Thanks

It asks for MOT Document number or V5 number. Just use the reg and number from the last MOT. Easy.

But does that not work for that MOT cert and older? If it had a newer one that wont show up.

Ah, so it is - my mistake.

If you put an MOT test number into the status check site it will mention whether or not a newer test number exists for the vehicle.

The full on history check won't show anything newer unless you can use the V5 number.
