Does a vehicle history check include MOT history?

Yes. Your report includes the car's MOT status, due date, and full test history — the same information you'd get from a free DVLA MOT check — alongside everything an MOT doesn't cover: outstanding finance, stolen status, and write-off history.

An MOT only confirms the car meets minimum roadworthiness standards on the day it was tested. It says nothing about finance owed or a hidden write-off, so a car can pass its MOT and still be a risky buy. You don't need to run a separate MOT check — it's already built into your report.
