Class 7 MOT Test at Tarvin Garage, Chester

What is a Class 7 MOT?

A Class 7 MOT is an annual test for commercial goods vehicles weighing between 3,000kg and 3,500kg, including larger vans, pick-up trucks, and chassis-cab versions. These tests are more in-depth than standard MOTs, with additional checks on tyre suitability for heavier loads and enhanced brake efficiency to ensure safety on the road.

Key details about Class 7 MOTs:

• Vehicle Type: 

Specifically designed for larger goods vehicles like vans, trucks, and some larger motorhomes or horseboxes. 

• Weight Range: 

Applies to vehicles with a Gross Weight (DGW) or Unladen Weight (ULW)>> of 3,001kg to 3,500kg. 

• Purpose: 

To ensure that heavier commercial vehicles can safely handle the stress and loads they carry, with extra attention paid to components like tyres and brakes. 

• Test Focus: 

In addition to the usual MOT checks, a Class 7 includes more thorough tests on tyre condition and brake performance due to the vehicle's size and likely use.
