Question 1

Is it worth booking my MOT and service at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, booking your MOT and service in Banbury at the same time can be incredibly worthwhile, especially if you struggle to find time to make multiple garage appointments.

And not only will you save time by combining your vehicle’s regular maintenance into one appointment, but many test centres also discount the price of an MOT when you book a service at the same time. This means you can get an even better deal.

Question 2

I need my car every day of the week, can I get an appointment on Saturday?

Accepted Answer

Yes, many MOT centres offer Saturday test slots to make your car’s maintenance fit into your schedule better.

If you need a Saturday MOT, you can either filter search results using the checkbox on the left-hand sidebar or select a specific date from the calendar to ensure you only compare options with weekend availability.

Question 3

My MOT expires soon, can I book my test for tomorrow?

Accepted Answer

Yes, many local test centres offer same- or next-day testing to ease some of the stress of a forgotten MOT expiry date.

If you need a test slot tomorrow, either sort search results by Availability (using the Sort By button in the top right corner) or select a specific date from the calendar on the left-hand sidebar. This will ensure you only compare Banbury MOT centres that can offer a next-day test.

Please ensure your chosen test centre confirms your booking before you arrive to avoid any additional stress on the day.

Question 4

Can I filter garages another way to find the right one for me?

Accepted Answer

We offer a range of sort and filter options to ensure every driver can easily find the best Banbury MOT centre for their needs.

Use the Sort By box in the top right corner to order results by Price, Distance, Availability, Reviews or even Name, reverting to Relevance at any time to see who we recommend based on a combination of these factors.

If you’re looking for a specific add-on such as vehicle collection and delivery or need a same-, next-day or Saturday MOT, you can use the checkboxes on the left-hand sidebar to filter out every garage that doesn’t offer what you’re looking for.

Question 5

How can I make my MOT more convenient?

Accepted Answer

Many local test centres offer vehicle collection and delivery as a convenient add-on to make your MOT fit into your life better.

A tester will come to collect your vehicle and return it to your home or workplace after all the work is done. This means you don’t need to put your life on hold during your inspection.

If you’d like to add this service to your MOT in Banbury, select it from the product drop-down on the left-hand sidebar to ensure you’re only comparing local options that offer it.

Question 6

Is there a way I can get a reminder service for when my MOT is due?

Accepted Answer

As it’s a legal requirement to always have a valid MOT certificate, we will send you a reminder email four weeks before yours is due if you’ve made a booking through our platform using that registration.

If you’d like more bespoke reminders and to receive occasional promotions and special offers, you can opt-in to marketing communications on the checkout page.

Question 7

Will the price of my appointment change?

Accepted Answer

As every test centre sets and updates their own prices, what you see is what you’ll pay. The only reason the price of your MOT will change is if you agree to additional work with your chosen garage directly.

Question 8

What are the Tier badges?

Accepted Answer

Our Silver, Gold and Top Tier badges reward the very best UK garages for their commitment to high-quality car care. Each garage must meet and maintain strict eligibility criteria to receive a badge and adhere to our high standards of customer service.

This means that choosing a garage with a Tier badge can lead to an even better deal and greater value for money.

Question 9

If I’m worried my car will fail the MOT, can I get it checked before the inspection?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and we recommend that you do so. Following this MOT checklist before your test will ensure there are no minor faults that could cause your car to fail, ensuring a stress-free experience.

If you’re not confident checking your vehicle yourself, you can book a pre-MOT check at your chosen test centre and get a professional to complete the visual checks before the MOT proper. This gives you the best chance of passing first time.

Question 10

How can I get the best deal on my MOT repairs as well?

Accepted Answer

If you know what your car needs, you can add it to your booking using the product dropdown on the left-hand sidebar. This will allow you to find the garage that offers the best value for money across both services.

If we don’t currently offer instant prices for your repair, or you don’t know what your car needs yet, you can still compare labour rates from local garages to get an idea how much a lengthy repair will cost. We show labour rates because these make up most of the final repair bill.

Question 11

What is the average price of an MOT in Banbury?

Accepted Answer

According to data taken from bookings made through our comparison site, an MOT in Banbury costs £36.12, on average. This is nearly £19 (or 34%) cheaper than the maximum UK price of £54.85.
