Hi Guys
My truck MOT will run out at the end of the month , but it needs some work doing before it could pass .
Is there a grace period in getting the MOT done , as if I take it now it will fail .
Or do I need to take it and let it fail then get the repairs done
Thanks
Les

Re: MOT
If you get repairs done and the MOT certificate is out of date you should not be driving it. Except, if you have an MOT BOOKED you can drive to have it done.
However if you choose to have the MOT done before it expires, and it fails, you get a failure certificate. You then have 30 days in which to get the repairs done. You can then take it for another MOT at a reduced cost

Some information in this link:
Take the vehicle registration document and the fee (currently €35.25) to a testing station authorized to carry out the test.
If a vehicle fails the test a temporary certificate is issued which allows 30 days to rectify the faullts.
The re-test fee is €10.
The result is entered on the DoRT database immediately and a certificate is issued. The certificate is valid for TWO years from the date of issue.
If your vehicle does not have a valid vehicle test certificate the road tax becomes invalid. You are likely to be prosecuted for both offences.
Insurance companies may refuse to cover damages to the vehicle if the driver of such a vehicle is involved in an accident.
