Two different MOT dates?

[Aimee-Lee]

hey guys

So when I go onto Check the MOT status of a vehicle - GOV.UK it says the MOT for my 2013 Ford Focus is 17th April 2017.

However,

When I go onto Book an MOT/vehicle test online | nidirect to book the test, it says it's not due until 25th May 2017 as that's when it's first registered! So it says I can't book one until 28 days before that date.

So what website is right? I don't want to get pulled over for no MOT!

Thanks guys

Has it been registered in England before? They MOT their cars when it turns 3 years old. That could answer it.

Yes! It's from England actually ! So do I just go with N.I law now or should I ring the DVLA and tell them it's from England? It's has an English plate!

No just MOT it when it turns 4 years old - book it 28 days beforehand. You'll be grand.
