Your ATV and the MOT
If you have an ATV that is more than 3 years old it will need an MOT test each year to ensure that it meets at least the minimum road safety and environmental standards.
The test relates only to the condition of the testable items at the time of the test. It should not be regarded as evidence of the condition of the items tested at any other time nor should it be taken as evidence of the general mechanical condition of the vehicle.
The Quad Centre offer a service to pre-check all the items inspected during the MOT and can then submit your vehicle for you.
