Are you looking for MOT in Luton?
MOT is a mandated test to assess the roadworthiness of every vehicle above 3 years old to drive on UK roads legally. MOT testers inspect various car components and ensure they are in optimal condition to deliver reliable on-road performance. Driving with a failed MOT Test Luton can result in fines of up to £2,500.

What does our MOT Check Luton entail?
Our technicians will first check the MOT history of your vehicle and then inspect the following components:
Tyres and wheels
It is mandatory for tyres to feature a tread depth of at least 1.6mm – which is the legal minimum to drive in the UK. Our experts will check the same, along with the tyre’s roadworthiness. We will also inspect your car wheels for signs of damages. Bent wheels can hamper car control significantly.
Steering wheel and column
Professionals at Autosave Ltd will conduct tests on your car’s steering column, steering arm, etc. and ensure they are working optimally. Faults in the steering wheel column can lead to diminished car manoeuvrability and make you vulnerable to on-road mishaps.
Suspension
The condition of shock absorbers is essential for driving comfort and your car’s ability to deal with different road conditions. Therefore, a thorough inspection of your vehicle’s suspension system is also a part of our MOT Check Luton.
Exhaust
Emission levels are a crucial part of an MOT Test Luton. Our professionals will perform tests and check your car’s exhaust emissions. Failure to meet the legal standards will lead to MOT test failure.
Brakes
Your car’s braking system needs to work optimally to pass an MOT Luton. Worn out brakes and increased braking distance are dangerous and therefore result in MOT failure.
Headlights and brake lights
Our experts will also check whether your vehicle’s various lights, including headlamps, brake lights, indicators, etc., are functioning correctly. They are also a crucial part of your on-road driving safety.
Seats and seatbelts
Moving on with the checks for MOT in Luton, our experts will then inspect seatbelt condition and functional levels.
