MOT is Ministry of Transport Test - you take your vehicle in for check, if it passes all checks, it gets a MOT certificate - which is renewable. TAX - Vehicle Tax i suppose. Every car on the road must have a Tax certificate - a road tax certificate. You must buy a car with valid MOT certificate and TAX - if no Tax - u can Tax it yourself. IF no MOT, it may be faulty. |

werepeLeri: MOT is Ministry of Transport Test - you take your vehicle in for check, if it passes all checks, it gets a MOT certificate - which is renewable. its not mandatory to buy a car with MOT and TAX but the car wont be allowed to be on the road, the same with a MOT and TAX only if you are not insured the only difference with the above is that the car with MOT and TAX can be parked in public road, the one without MOT but with TAX can be parked in public road but can be driven becoz it doesnt have MOT which is a road worth certificate on buying one without any of the two it depends on individuals eg DIY guy can get a car without MOT aslong he knows what failed on the car and the cost to repair it though the repairing bill will be added to total money you bought the car whereas on average most people want a car with an average 5 months mot and tax so that s/he will just insure the car and s/he is on the road |

MOT is a test to show your vehicle is road worthy and meet the minimum standard safety required for the vehicle to be driven on UK roads Road TAX is actually what we call vehicle license in Nigeria this is displayed on the left hand side of the vehicle windscreen However if your vehicle does not have a valid MOT and insurance you may not be able to tax it. |

ZIM DRILL: You can park any car on the road provided it is parked legally in designated parking space having said that if your car does not have a valid MOT, road TAX and Insurance this will be picked up by the police ANPR system (automatic number plate recorgnition) if parked or driven on the road and you will certainly have issues with the authorities. You will get a fine with your car seized and you will incure cost for every day your car is at the storage If you are unlucky your car could possibly be crushed and recycled it does not matter the cost or value of the car |
