Less frequent MoTs would save millions for motorists See http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-2477478,00.html review of EU red tape suggested that it was unnecessarily burdensome. The study found that Britain's 22 million motorists would save £465 million a year if they had the MoT test less frequently, and that there would be no obvious decrease in road safety. Treasury officials said that they would consult police and road safety groups before going ahead with the reform and that it would take about a year to come into effect. < The Government thinking of 'us' - I smell a rat..
Bound to be something in it for them, I agree. The NCT in Ireland is done every two years, but it's v. strict and costs more than an MoT. Seems to work well enough, apart from the numpties in some test centres failing cars for utterly trivial things, like not having the rear seat belt ends on display.

Whoa. I've done it once without MOTing it. Is the Post office going to refuse today because it's *first* MOT is due on the 23rd Of December?

The renewal form will list documents required, usually MOT and insurance. The tax issuer (P.O. or website) simply won't issue the tax disc if you don't. In fact, IIRC the MOT has to be valid on the day the tax is to start, though this won't affect you. It affected me thoough when I rocked up at a post office with a current, valid MOT that expired before the start of the month the tax was due.
Which was the question I was trying to get answered at this point.
