Keep Your Car in Perfect Condition

Smart service reminders, maintenance tracking, and predictive repair alerts.

Why MOTR?

Maintain Resale Value

Complete service history is essential for resale value. MOTR documents every maintenance task, protecting your investment.

UK Car Maintenance — Key Facts

Service intervals

Typically every 10,000–12,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. Check your manufacturer handbook.

MOT vs service

An MOT is a legal minimum safety check. A service is a comprehensive mechanical inspection. They are not the same thing.

Warranty requirement

Most manufacturer warranties require documented annual servicing. Missing a service can void your warranty.

Brake pads

Front brake pads typically last 25,000–50,000 miles. Worn pads are a top-5 MOT failure.
