Customers are overwhelmingly positive about Valley Autos, repeatedly praising friendly, professional staff (notably Sarah and Felix), clear communication, fast turnaround and the convenient collection/delivery and mobile services — many mention good value, honest advice and reliable diagnostics. One detailed negative review describes feeling pressured into a tyre replacement during a Pre‑MOT that cost warranty cover and coincided with an MOT fail, so while most feedback is excellent it’s wise to confirm parts, warranties and written estimates before authorising work.

Most customers praise the garage for friendly, professional staff, clear communication, quick turnaround and convenient collection/delivery, with many saying the workmanship is good and they’d recommend or return. However, a noticeable minority report inconsistent communication, surprise extra charges or upselling, limited card-payment options and administrative slips (service-book stamping/service-light resets), and a few serious complaints about poor repairs or damage — so experiences are largely positive but not uniformly so.

Customers frequently praise Johnsons for friendly, professional staff, quick turnaround and good aftercare (washed cars, helpful updates and collect‑and‑deliver/loan options), with many saying the work represents good value when booked via BookMyGarage. Recurring negatives centre on booking mix‑ups or cancelled/unhonoured appointments, unexpected or higher-than-quoted costs, and occasional service or paperwork oversights (missed items, incorrect vehicle details). Improving booking reliability and clearer, upfront pricing would address the main complaints and align with the generally strong customer care reported.

What do the Tier badges mean?

When do I pay for my MOT?

We never ask for payment details upfront.

Once you’ve chosen your garage, you deal with them directly from start to finish, paying only after the work is complete – giving you full peace of mind.

Some mobile technicians may request some commitment or payment upfront to cover the costs of them coming out to you.

Do Birmingham test centres offer convenience options to make my appointment easier?

Whether you need your car every day or simply want a hassle-free experience, our garages are here to make car care effortless. Where possible, they offer:
• Collection and delivery services
• Same- or next-day appointments
• Saturday availability

And with our comprehensive sort and filter options, we make it easy for you to choose the right garage, fast – whatever you or your car needs.

Do you provide a reminder service?

If your MOT expiry date is one more thing to worry about, you can opt-in to our free email reminder service when you check out. That way, you’ll get personalised reminders before next year’s test, ensuring you never forget another inspection.

Can I compare test centres another way?

Absolutely. True value looks different to everyone so, whether you want the nearest garage, the best-rated option or the lowest price, you can use the Sort By menu in the top-right corner to compare results by Price, Distance, Availability or Reviews - whatever matters most to you.

Can I reschedule my MOT booking?

You can change your booking details right up until the appointment date. You’ll find instructions in the confirmation email you received or in your BookMyGarage account. Your chosen garage will contact you to acknowledge the amendment and re-confirm your booking.

Can I take my car to a different garage if it fails its MOT?

Yes, as long as your MOT certificate hasn’t expired, you can take your car elsewhere for repairs and retesting.

What does 'BMG Verified' mean?

Garages marked as BMG Verified have been physically visited and vetted by our team to ensure they meet clear service standards.
