Just been checking out a vehicle and it appears on the DVLA MOT history that it had two MOTs both passed within 4 months and 700 miles. As below. Any reasons why someone would do that? Lot of accident damage?
Test date: 14 May 2009 Expiry date: 13 May 2010 Test Result: Pass Odometer reading: 17,120 miles MOT test number: 3542 1403 9193 Test date: 26 January 2009 Expiry date: 25 January 2010 Test Result: Pass Odometer reading: 16,440 miles MOT test number: 1423 0612 9437

I can think of a few reasons: - New owner
- Forgetful owner
- Owner made a modification and wanted to know if it would pass
- A free MOT with a service deal, or another deal where either an MOT was thrown in or they paid for an MOT and another thing was thrown in (maybe a service, maybe half price tyres, who knows?

I'd agree. Many places supply a full MOT from date of purchase, regardless of whether it has a week or 11 months still on it.
It gives the customer a little peace of mind that its been checked pretty close to the day they take it away.
