Ford MOT tests are legally required for all cars aged over three years old. At Mon Motors Ford, we can complete your next Ford MOT test for just £54.85. This will be carried out by our team of Ford-approved technicians at our official Newport Ford dealership.
Having worked as an official Ford partner since 1990, our staff have a deep knowledge of Ford cars and will know how to safely fix your car should it fail the test. We only use genuine Ford parts when replacements are necessary and we offer 0% finance on Ford repair bills, as well.
In addition, we can carry out a Ford service and MOT test at the same time to save repeat visits. When these are being carried out, you’re more than welcome to wait in our comfortable customer lounge and make the most of the free Wi-Fi and refreshments on offer.
What does a Ford MOT test include?
Unlike annual Ford servicing, Ford MOT tests are a legal requirement in the UK for all cars aged over three years old. Those built or registered more than 40 years ago are exempt, provided they haven’t undergone any substantial changes in the past 30 years. The test acts as proof that the car meets the minimum safety and environmental standards, and is considered roadworthy for the next year.
During a Ford MOT test, our team will follow a checklist set by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), which includes inspections of the brakes, gears, tyres, headlights, windscreen wipers, and other parts of the car. This should take no longer than an hour to complete.
At the end of a Ford MOT test, a vehicle will either receive a pass or a fail. If the vehicle passes, it’s safe to drive away — be aware that the MOT test might highlight ‘minor’ or ‘advisory’ problems, which will need to be monitored and potentially fixed in the future.
If a vehicle fails an MOT test, the report will state the ‘major’ or ‘dangerous’ faults that led to this verdict. Very often, these will be simple repairs that can be carried out at our Newport Ford dealership. Not only will these Ford repairs be carried out by Ford-approved technicians, but we will also use genuine Ford parts and offer a two-year warranty on these. What’s more, there are 0% finance options available if you’d like to spread the costs.
The benefits of getting your Ford MOT with Mon Motors
If your car is between three and forty years old, it will need an annual Ford MOT test to be legally driven on the UK’s roads. At Mon Motors Ford, we can perform these at the competitive price of £54.85 and can arrange a Ford MOT and service at the same time to prevent repeat visits to our Newport Ford dealership.
Why choose us? Well, we’ve been an official Ford partner since 1990, when we acquired our first Ford dealership. During the following decades, we’ve built up a deep knowledge of Ford’s cars and there’s no better authority on the manufacturer’s vehicles than our team of Ford-trained specialists.
This puts you in a good position should your car fail its Ford MOT test. We will usually be able to quickly fix the relevant part and only use genuine Ford parts if replacements are necessary — these have a two-year warranty for added protection.
We understand that Ford repair costs brought about by a failed MOT test might be unanticipated, which is why we offer 0% finance APR to help you manage the payback — with this, you can spread the costs out over a longer period without accumulating additional interest and even delay the first payment by up to 40 days.
