The Winter MOT Opportunity 🚗❄️
We might not be reaching for the winter coat just yet, but the aftermarket is already looking ahead.
Colder mornings, darker evenings, wetter weather and, of course, MOT season all mean more vehicles heading into workshops and more opportunities for replacement parts.
From engine management, emissions and heating to lighting and visibility, having the right parts available can make all the difference when an MOT failure needs turning into a repair.
Emissions are Getting More Attention ⚠️
There’s also more attention being placed on vehicle emissions. Proposed Government measures could bring tighter requirements around in-use emissions, including DPFs, EGR, SCR/AdBlue systems and catalytic converters, with new legislation envisaged for 2027.
