Do I have to MOT a leased car PDF Print E-mail

Get asked this one all of the time.

Quite simply put, in the UK cars require a Ministry Of Transport (MOT) test every 12 months to ensure they are roadworthy.

There is an exception. If the vehicle is less than 3 years old, it does not require an MOT. I have absolutely no idea why the MOT believe a brand new car can not become un-roadworthy in less than 3 years (I’ve seen some great examples) but they do.

So.

If your lease is for 2 years on a brand new car, you will not need to put the vehicle through an MOT. However, on its 3rd birthday, the car WILL need an MOT.

So if the car is on a 3 year lease, there is a real chance you will have to put it through an MOT.
