Agreed - although remember the MOT only starts once the car is there years old. There is no MOT for the first few years.

Also, and more of an edge case, there are some vehicles that don't require an MOT, such as vintage vehicles (which also don't pay VED) and don't public sector fleets (such as police cars)

Also, there is significant evidence that reducing the frequency of MOTs would be a good thing all round (no real downside, until a car falls below a specific level).

Maybe it could allow new vehicles to self-report yearly until the first MOT.
