Scrap: MOT Not Needed!

Scrap scheme trade-ins do NOT need to have a current MOT, Car Dealer Magazine can today reveal…

… because cars with freshly-expired MoT certificates will still be accepted under the scheme, the Government has confirmed.

So long as the MOT hasn’t been expired for more than 14 days, motors without a current MOT will still earn the rebate from the Government.

This is a small but significant clarification from the Government – as it means that cars which are arguably unroadworthy can still be accepted under the scheme.

Owners who, last year, were told their old banger would not pass another MOT can now scrap it and receive the Government incentive, without the need to make it roadworthy first.

Car Dealer Magazine predicts that, once this dawns on car owners, the scheme’s impact really will rocket…
