Minibus MOTs in Erdington
Class 5 MOT tests for minibuses and other passenger vehicles with 13 or more passenger seats, at our DVSA authorised station on Kingsbury Road.
Book your minibus MOT
Class 5 is the MOT for private passenger vehicles with 13 or more passenger seats: community minibuses, school and club minibuses and similar. Vehicles with 9 to 12 passenger seats take the class 4 test instead.
A vehicle with more than 8 passenger seats needs its first MOT one year after registration, not three, and then every year.
The test covers what it would on a car, with particular attention to what carries passengers safely: the seats and their fixings, seat belts, and the brakes and suspension under a heavier vehicle.
Not every testing station can take a minibus. Ours sits alongside class 4 and class 7, so a minibus and the cars or vans that run with it can all be tested in one place.
Any questions? Call 0121 377 7738 and ask.
