Create a free account and add your registration to your Garage. That's the only thing you type.
MOT expiry and history from the DVSA, tax status and due date from the DVLA — automatically, from official records.
An email lands before your MOT or tax is due (14 days by default), so you book the test on your terms — not the fine's.
Your free Garage also tracks insurance renewal dates, logs your fill-ups with cost-per-mile stats, and connects to the UK's live fuel price map — so the same account that saves you a £1,000 fine also finds you the cheapest petrol near you every week.
Add your registration plate to your free Garage and we look up your MOT expiry date instantly from official DVSA records — along with your tax due date from the DVLA. You'll then get an email reminder before either is due.
Yes. One vehicle with MOT, tax and insurance reminders is free forever — no card required. Premium (£1.99/month) covers up to 10 vehicles with custom reminder timing, for households with more than one car.
Driving without a valid MOT carries a fine of up to £1,000 (up to £2,500 and penalty points if the vehicle is judged dangerous), and it can invalidate your insurance. You also can't renew road tax without a valid MOT.
DVLA cameras and ANPR flag untaxed vehicles automatically. You face an £80 out-of-court settlement letter rising to a fine of up to £1,000, and the vehicle can be clamped or impounded.
Directly from official sources: the DVSA MOT history service for MOT status and expiry, and the DVLA vehicle enquiry service for tax status. We look both up automatically from your registration plate — nothing to type in manually.
Three years after first registration (four years in Northern Ireland), and every 12 months after that. Your first MOT is due on the third anniversary of the registration date, which we look up for you automatically.
