No, although a certain level of expertise and experience are necessary to make checks and know what issues to look for and how to fix them. Taskers should also be aware of the sort of issues and standards MOT will be focused on, so they can make the needed repairs and make your car roadworthy according to their standards.
It’s possible for a car to pass its MOT testing, as long as it has been maintained properly, hasn’t sustained any serious damage or damage that can lessen its chances of passing.
