Running an MOT testing station today is about more than just inspecting vehicles. Meeting DVSA standards, new hybrid and EV technology, and rising customer expectations all mean your industry compliance needs to be bulletproof.
At MOT Compliance Group, our team of expert consultants are all fully qualified MOT testers, experienced business owners and ex-DVSA Vehicle Examiners supporting MOT testing stations nationwide with their compliance and training.
The Modern MOT Compliance Challenge
The DVSA has made it clear: every Vehicle Testing Station must manage TQI data, carry out regular QC checks, and ensure MOT Tester competence through Annual Refresher Training. Neglect any of these and you risk losing your MOT Tester status.
