With the DVSA announcing that van drivers and delivery fleets across the UK are struggling to book Class 7 MOT slots, LKQ Euro Car Parts is urging garages to do what they can to help.

The challenge has stemmed from the backlog created by the MOT extension earlier this year, with demand remaining high across every vehicle class.

Anthony McAteer, trading director at LKQ Euro Car Parts, said: “We and our workshop customers have an important part to play in keeping vans moving safely over the next few weeks – and so their drivers can keep doing their jobs when it matters most.

“We’re advising garages to take advantage of high demand for tests over the next few weeks, before things quieten down.”

LKQ Euro Car Parts suggests garages could prioritise inbound Class 7 requests and even identify where tests are due by analysing their customer database and proactively encouraging drivers to bring their vehicles in.

Anthony added: “Bringing in business between now and Christmas will help to offset the impact of what’s been a challenging year.

“Being proactive is the best way to manage demand and plan resource effectively – even bringing temporary team members on board if there’s capacity in the workshop to do so safely.”
