faq
Q: What counts as a Class 7 vehicle?
A: Vans and light commercials with a gross vehicle weight between 3,000kg and 3,500kg — this covers most Ford Transits, Mercedes Sprinters, VW Transporters and similar panel vans and crew vans.
Q: Is a van MOT different from a car MOT?
A: The core checks are the same (brakes, tyres, lights, steering, emissions, bodywork) but Class 7 testing also covers commercial-specific items like load area security and tow bar condition where fitted.
Q: Do I need to empty the van before the test?
A: It's not required, but a lighter, tidier load area makes the underside and brake inspection quicker. Loose tools or stock should be secured either way.
Q: How much does a Class 7 MOT cost and how long does it take?
A: £55, no appointment needed. Most Class 7 tests take 45-60 minutes.
