My car needs an MOT when I'm outside the country
My car MOT and service are both due in August but I will be away from early July and wont be back until early September.
To keep my car warranty I need to service the car within four weeks of the service due date.
Should I bring my car in for a service and MOT more than a month in advance so I dont need to rush, or is it a better idea to wait until I get back and the MOT has expired?

You will just have to have both the service and the MoT in advance.

Much better execution of original A-Class concept. Feels far higher quality, especially inside. Easy to park.
