Should I still MOT my car? 💭🗯
Even though there is currently a 6 month extension on MOT’s - your car still needs to be deemed road-worthy for you to legally drive it.
Things you can do to ensure your car is safe to drive...
1️⃣ Check your MOT paperwork to see what advisories you had. It’s best to get these checked by a professional as left unchecked they could put you and others on the road in danger and be more costly as time passes!
2️⃣ Book your car in for a safety check!
3️⃣ Have your car serviced!
4️⃣ Book your car in for an MOT.
Although the above isn’t mandatory, it’s the best way to ensure you’re not putting yourself or others at risk whilst driving.
We are following all safety advice.

***IMPORTANT UPDATE ON THE 6 MONTH MOT EXTENSION***
The government has started placing extensions on MOT expiry dates, adding an additional 6 months. It has now been confirmed by the DVSA that your MOT expiry date will usually be updated on the day or a few days before your MOT is due to expire.
The reason for this is they are reviewing the extension on a monthly basis and may stop extending MOT expiry dates at any point depending on the situation in the UK.
**Please note - all cars must still be safe and roadworthy!**
Many people rely on MOT’s to reveal defects on their cars, now that the government have extended MOT’s don’t get caught out! ⚠️

‘MGF MOTORS TOP TIPS’ 💙
During lockdown, chances are many of us wont be using our cars anywhere near as much as usual. A vehicle that is left unused can develop problems. ⚠️
🚘 Run your engine.
We recommend running it for at least 15 minutes a week to maintain the charge in a battery. Not only will this give the battery time to increase its charge but will also circulate oil & fuel around the engine which can prevent engine flooding in petrol cars.
🚘 Move the car a short distance.
1 of the dangers when a car has been parked for a long period of time with the hand brake on is that the brakes can seize. To prevent this, it’s good practice to release the parking brake & move the vehicle a short distance wherever possible.
🚘 Check fluid levels.
You should top up your engine oil & coolant if needed. Also, keep your fuel tank full. This will prevent condensation forming inside, which could cause issues if allowed to build up over time.
🚘 Pump your tyres.
This will help prevent flat-spotting. (The area of the tyre in contact with the ground becoming flat)
We hope this helps 💙 Stay safe everyone.
