MOTs could be 2 years apart in Tory 'cost of living' plan - that'd save just £27 a year

Drivers could be allowed to get a new MOT on their cars every two years rather than annually under cost of living plans discussed by the Government.

Transport Secretary Grant Shapps is said to have raised the idea at Cabinet after Boris Johnson asked ministers to drum up ideas to help hard-pressed Brits - without any extra Government spending.

The move would save drivers up to £54.85 for a standard car and £29.65 for a regular motorcycle every two years if it was implemented.
