At Blackshaws we are aware that many of our customers with cars that are more than 3 years old worry about unexpected costs that may arise when their car goes in for its annual MOT check.
However now there is a way we can help. If you take out a simple one off payment MOT Insurance for as little as £79 you can bring your car in for its MOT safe in the knowledge that in the event of a test failure on a covered component, you are protected against the cost of the repair or replacement.
To qualify for this cover the insurance has to be taken out at least 3 months before your MOT test is due and you can choose to protect your vehicle for either 1 or 2 tests. The maximum cover per test is £750.
