Last week.... on the 6th tbh, swmbo needs the car this weekend, that would involve 35 miles on motorway, thoughts...........

It's a roll of the dice really.

You got any alternate such as a car trailer or closer test station?

MOT place just up the road, she was going to the caravan (Static)  from home and take my car from work; I could make her wait till I come home and just take my car.....

Just realised why I got a missed call from the Garage about a week ago....

Does no MOT mean no insurance? I suspect it does..... I was ok 2 hours ago when I did not know.......

Insurance only valid if driving to a pre-booked MOT appointment I think

Thanks Rob, confirmed what I thought, she won't be using the car till it has a new MOT, she is of work at the moment to handy, she will try and get it done tomorrow, if not next week and they will have to wait for me to go to the caravan.......it's my own stupid fault.....

So your insurance will indemnify you if you damage your car whilst driving with no MOT. Find that hard to believe

3rd part only or road traffic act as a bare minimum,after all your car may be perfectly roadworthy, all the mot  proves that it met certain criterior at the time of the test

I always thought one of the conditions of insurance was that the vehicle had to be road legal? 

Therefore No MOT = No Insurance

nope roadworthy condition,after all if it was road legal then you would have to trailor your car to a mot station if it had expired.this subject has been covered many times on pistonheads

I am quite sure that if I rang them up and asked the question it would be a no no......regardless we have decided the car is off the road until it has a nice new MOT.....
