Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check MOT Check every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

mot
get_mot_history
UK-registered vehicles only. From official DVSA MOT records. Full MOT test history for a UK vehicle: every test with its date, result, recorded mileage, and the advisories, minor defects and failures found. Also reports whether the recorded mileage ever went down between tests, which can indicate clocking or an error. Use for 'why did it fail its MOT', 'what were the advisories', 'show me the MOT history', 'past MOT results', 'mileage history', 'has it been clocked', 'is the mileage consistent'.
get_mot_status
UK-registered vehicles only. From official DVSA MOT records. When is the MOT due, when does it expire or run out, is it still valid: the current MOT status of a UK car, van or motorbike, its MOT expiry date and days remaining, and the result, mileage, advisories and defects from its most recent MOT test. Status first_mot_not_due means the vehicle is under three years old and has not needed an MOT yet; expiry_date is then the date its first MOT is due. Use for 'when is my MOT due', 'when is the MOT due on wr25vup', 'has my MOT expired', 'when do I need to renew my MOT', 'did it pass its last MOT'.
lookup
lookup_vehicle
UK-registered vehicles only. From DVSA, DVLA and HPI data. Look up a UK number plate (reg, registration) and get the vehicle's make, model, colour, year, fuel type and age, whether it has a valid MOT and when it expires, and whether it is taxed and when the tax is due. The best first call for any general question about a UK car, van or motorbike: 'what car is wr25vup', 'check this number plate', 'look up this reg', 'is it taxed', 'when is the tax due', 'is it road legal', 'how old is it'.

MOT Check — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can MOT Check do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_mot_history, get_mot_status, lookup_vehicle. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is MOT Check working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 264 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect MOT Check?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does MOT Check need an API key?
No. MOT Check completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is MOT Check?
It answers our handshake in 264 ms on average, which is faster than 54% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
