This has been discussed several times before on here but there is never a definite answer even with an age related plate. So I guess a Q plate will be even more hit and miss. The only way to find out is to wait until the reminder drops through your letter box as that will tell you what is required.

hi cant remember the address but there is a government web page that will tell you when the MOT is up for your car, you use the reg and some info from your v5. a google search should find it.

In theory unless it has a brand new registration it should need an MOT every year but some were lucky & got away with it the first 3 years without one.... my first was like that.

 

It would be safer to MOT it unless you're not going to drive it until the Tax renewal comes round unless you can find out somewhere online or with DVLA.

 

Good luck!

This could be that page - a check on here should reveal the expiry date. MOT Check

Mine certainly didn't need an MOT until its third year after registration (SVA'd in 2004, first MOT in 2007). I'd only had the car a year then but personally I find it comforting to get someone to have a good check over of these important safety issues every year.

I actually ask my MOT tester to give it a really good going over, just for peace of mind, and advise me of any recommended areas for attention. Now that I regularly carry a precious cargo (my 3 year old son who can't get enough of it), I'm not taking any risks.
