You can save yourself both time and money when you book your Kia MOT and service together. While there is no legal obligation to book a car service, you must have a valid MOT at all times to drive on public roads in the UK. When you book the two together, your vehicle will always get the level of care and attention it deserves.
Plus, many Kia garages offer a significant discount on your MOT when you book it alongside a car service. This gives you the best deal and makes your car maintenance as stress-free as possible.
Enter your reg and postcode to compare Kia MOT and service deals near you and book in just 2 steps today.
