Will I get a text to tell me what day and time my NCT test is?
How do I get a duplicate NCT cert?
Hi,
I am in two minds what to do. My car recently failed the NCT and it is going to cost me nearly €1,000 to fix it or should I leave it and buy a new car?
Will interior LED lights that go into the footwell fail your car's NCT?

Hi,
I have a 2006 Opel Astra. The electronic button on my key doesn't work. Will my car fail the NCT for using the key manually?
I have bought a new Toyota Proace City 1.5 SWB van and I have taxed it and insured it for private use. The tax cost me €413. My query is, where do I get it tested when it comes up? Is it NCT or CVRT? Which one is it classed for?
Thanking you
Dave
Hi, can you please help?
My 2004 Mitsubishi Colt needs its two outer CV joints replacing as it creaks when turning the wheel, though it does not affect the drive quality. I am having trouble finding the parts as it's a Japanese import. My main concern is will it pass its NCT with the creaking?
Thanks
Sue
When will the NCT issue appointments for under-car inspections that could not be completed due to their scissor lift fiasco?
I have a 1992 Volvo that I bought new; it has been in the garage for the last 10 years and I would like to put it back on the road. I had the local mechanic look at it and he said that if he drove it 30 miles down the road to take the surface rust off the discs it would probably pass an NCT. However, I would like to take it to the garage and have the discs and pads changed along with the brake hoses. The question is, can I drive it to the garage without tax and NCT?
Best wishes, Chris Keohane
