Located in South Yorkshire, Barnsley Car Service Centre is your local specialist for all your car servicing and repair requirements. By using a specialist servicing centre, rather than a main dealer you save money on labour and parts. Because of recent changes in the law your manufacturer warranty will now REMAIN INTACT if you use an independent business like ours for your servicing rather than a main dealer. In the past, motor manufacturers insisted car servicing and repair work could only be carried out by a franchised main dealer but this practice has been outlawed under EU law – meaning you benefit from smaller servicing bills.

Frequently asked questions
You can book an MOT online today by entering your vehicle registration and postcode into our comparison site.
If your car fails and needs extra repairs, it will take a lot longer. The test centre will be able to give you a time estimate based on the severity of your repairs.
If you book your MOT early, you get more time to fix any faults and ensure your car is still legal to drive on UK roads. However, if you book your MOT earlier than a month in advance, the expiry date will become the date of your most recent test.
If you book your MOT early, it becomes valid for up to 13 months (the 12 months from your expiry date this year to the following year, plus up to an additional 30 days. This depends on how early you booked your MOT).
