What is the role of the Vehicle's VIN in the MOT test

The Vehicle Identification Number contains a unique combination of alphanumeric characters, which offers accurate identification for each vehicle on the road. An MOT test Cheadle makes significant use of the VIN in multiple essential processes. An MOT test requires vehicle identification through the VIN because it enables synchronization between the vehicle in the database and the car undergoing examination. The vehicle identification system ensures correct inspections by preventing errors that could lead to improper assessments.
