Mot Help Needed

[Guest danny_samb]

Hi guys had my kit car mot'd on the 11th of this month, passed and was all fine, just noticed on the paperwork that the mileage reading is incorrect the previous mot reading was 10,240 but the mot garage this time have put 103,489 on my mot. There is no way I could of done that mileage it should of been 10,348.9

What happens now

[jaimo]

Go back and ask them to do an amendment and new mot copy

[Guest danny_samb]

Can that be done means it's been nearly 3 weeks

Don't see why not. Go in the car just in case, you'd be hard pushed to have gone round the clock back to your current mileage. They will change it I am sure, everybody makes mistakes.

My garage had to issue a new mot certificate when this happened as they could not amend the old one. Problem is that it still shows up on an HPI check until they agreed to remove it from their mileage database.

don't worry they can adjust it next time unless your selling it, on my 2b I had 3 mot's done 1 ofter the other with the same milage as my speedo didn't work I used my sat nav as a speedo till I sorted out the reason my speed didn't work

I'll give the garage a call tomorrow. Iv read on the Internet that vosa can amend it on there database and issue a new certificate is that true?

Bare in mind it might cause an insurance issue if you have it down as 3000miles and the database shows you have done considerably more. Insurance companys will use anything to get out of paying. Mistake or otherwise its a headache you could do without

[Guest danny_samb]

I'm sure they will see it's a mistake from the last 5 mot's the car has done less than 1k miles in between mot. But now from the last mot it says it's down 93k in a year. But the car was sorn for 9 months

i'm sure you could average 43mph if you didn't ever sleep

[speedtripledan]

Probally would see it as mistake but like i say insurance companies will do anything to not pay out

[DAN@ADRIAN FLUX]

Hi,

I would recommend you give your insurer a quick buzz to notify them of the correct mileage just to be on the safe side.

Regards,

Dan.

A thousand miles a year me thinks somebody needs to drive it a bit more

[Guest danny_samb]

I'm in the middle of doing the agreed valuation for insurance so have a pic of mileage and jotted it down on the valuation form
