As said, no MOT, you have to get it off the road.

Just to add, as said pre booked MOT is a must, make sure when you book it in they have all your details, Pre booked means it has to be driven directly there and local, also technically you only have 1 hour before and after the Test (if it fails or you dont have Tax) for it to be legally driven on the road.  :y,

I can't see that ..... what if you dropped it off on your way to work & then wanted to collect it on your way home 8/10/12 hours later  ::) ::)
