MOTchecker was founded by Clinton Brewill in 2019. Based in London, the company provides UK drivers with unlimited access to the latest MOT information. What started as a simple side project envisioned by a repair shop owner has recently achieved huge success and recognition among local audiences, servicing thousands of users.

MOTchecker is a registered DVLA Number Plate provider that enables users to get some of the most comprehensive vehicle reports available in the country, all tied together and delivered through a user-friendly, highly accessible, and convenient interface. Users only need to input their car’s registration number and they will immediately be able to access their MOT results, both current and historical.

“Convenience and speed are our priorities. We understand how tedious and boring working with these documents is for a lot of drivers. However, there is no way to avoid them, so the best thing that can be done about it is to ensure that they are provided in a simple and accessible way so that the process doesn’t take long and isn’t as confusing. We have spent a lot of time fine-tuning our system and reacting to user feedback so that we could provide this level of service, and we are happy that MOTchecker has been so well recognized lately,“ says Clinton Brewill, CEO of MOTchecker.

Today, the UK roads are used by more than 38.4 million vehicles, and any driver who plans on purchasing a car has to check its MOT history to see if it fits all the necessary requirements. What makes matters even more complicated is the fact that the MOT is only issued for a three-year period, meaning that as soon as it expires, driving the car is considered breaking the law. 

However, that is only a part of the problem. UK vehicles are also required to have a valid road tax, which is difficult to check by yourself after the tax disc was scrapped. As a result, complying with standards becomes difficult and requires checking several disconnected sources of information regularly and ensuring you don’t miss any crucial deadlines. 

MOTchecker offers instant access to both current and historical MOT details for any UK registration plate, as well as an option to receive email and SMS reminders to help drivers note when their vehicle tax & MOT expire. It is currently one of the most comprehensive tools available in the niche, providing vehicle info from a combination of official sources like GOV.UK MOT History, Vehicle Tax, and MOT Status, as well as multiple selected paid third-party providers. As a result, MOTchecker serves as a unified source of truth for any driver, meaning that they won’t have to check multiple sources and pay for separate services. 

If a driver isn’t convinced by the premise, the team behind the project offers a 48-hour trial option for just 50p, providing unrestricted access to the comprehensive database.
