What Is a Class 7 MOT?
A Class 7 MOT is an annual inspection specifically designed for vehicles with a gross weight between 3,000kg and 3,500kg. This includes vans, campervans, horseboxes, and light commercial vehicles. The test confirms your vehicle meets the UK’s minimum safety and environmental standards.
By law, any vehicle over three years old must pass an MOT test annually. Driving without a valid MOT is illegal and puts both you and other road users at risk.
Additionally, it could result in police fines, a situation everyone wants to avoid.
Stay legal and stay safe on the roads. Call our experts at Athersmith Motor Services, your trusted local garage in Ulverston.
Camper Van MOT
Many larger camper vans fall into the Class 7 category due to their gross vehicle weight exceeding 3,000kg. These vehicles require a Class 7 ramp to carry out the test, which not all garages have.
At Athersmith Motor Services, we’re fully equipped to handle Camper Van MOT testing for these larger vehicles.
It’s worth noting that smaller camper vans under 3,000kg only require a standard Class 4 MOT. If you’re unsure which test your camper van needs, give our team a call on 01229 585288 and we’ll check for you.
Is there a disadvantage to booking early?
There are no downsides to booking your MOT early. Remember, you can schedule your MOT up to one month (minus a day) before the due date to keep the same renewal date.
