View MOT data from the DVSA

All garages will know firsthand that sometimes customers will have no clue when their MOT is due or when they require an MOT test. Using our API integration with the DVSA, you can have instant access to any vehicle’s full MOT history. This means you can check how long it is until their MOT due date and ensure their test is valid for 12 months.

Accessible from any vehicle screen within VGM, you can see it’s full history and can generate MOT reminders, ensuring your customers maintain a valid MOT.

VGM’s hassle-free MOT check service can remind customers to generate a steady stream of work throughout the year. This could turn a one-off service into a life-long customer. They will also appreciate you making their lives easier.

If you want to check the MOT status of a customer’s car, motorcycle, or van, you can get results for tests done since 2005. If you are checking HGVs, buses, or coaches, you will be able to get results for tests done after 2018.
