MOT Class 4

A Class 4 MOT is the legal annual roadworthiness test for most cars, small vans and light vehicles over 3 years old. At Best Garages Ltd, we carry out Class 4 MOT tests in Newport, Lymington and Ringwood, checking your vehicle meets UK safety and emissions standards.

What a Class 4 MOT covers

Your MOT inspection includes the key systems that affect safety and environmental compliance, including:

• Brakes (performance, wear, warning lights)

• Steering & suspension (condition, play, mounting points)

• Tyres & wheels (tread depth, damage, size suitability)

• Lights & electrics (headlights alignment, indicators, brake lights, dashboard warnings)

• Visibility (wipers, washers, windscreen condition)

• Exhaust & emissions (leaks, noise, catalytic converter/DPF where applicable, emissions levels)

• Safety equipment (seat belts, airbags/SRS warning lights, horns, mirrors, doors)

Why your MOT matters

An MOT confirms your vehicle is safe to drive and compliant with emissions rules. If your MOT has expired, driving it (except to a pre-booked test) can lead to fines and invalid insurance. Keeping it up to date protects you, your passengers, and other road users.
