Hi, I'm Lois. Pop your reg in and I'll look up your car's official MOT history — or paste a result, upload a photo of the certificate, or just ask me about a fail or an advisory. I'll explain it in plain English and tell you what to do next.

General guidance only — a technician must inspect the vehicle before repairs. Don't include personal details; your reg is all Lois needs.

Want it fixed?

Send us the result and we'll text you a photographed, itemised quote. Retest is free when we do the repairs.

Where to find your result: your tester gives you a VT30 (fail) or VT20 (pass) certificate, and every car's history is free at gov.uk/check-mot-history.
