Audi A4 - Arranging an MOT for a Sorn vehicle - Steveieb

Can someone explain the rules so that I can take my A4 which I plan to Sorn to put an MOT on it please.

It will have no tax or insurance and I plan to keep it in store after the test.

Many thanks

You need insurance and then you have to pre book the MOT. You can then drive to / from the place of MOT but you might not be able to drive back if it fails with a dangerous problem.

May I ask why MOT it if you are not going to drive it unless you think it may have a problem?

Also it will need to be insured in its own right. You can’t drive it under the driving other cars provision if you (or a friend) have insurance for another vehicle. You would have to add it temporarily to the other car’s policy or buy short term insurance. It’s not stated if the MoT has expired but you would have to ensure the cover allows for this. It must be a common occurrence so it’s probably not an issue but just bumps up the premium.

Another option might be for the garage to collect under their insurance if they have the right cover?
