Reviews Summary

Customers praise the garage for friendly, trustworthy staff, fair and transparent pricing, quick efficient MOTs and services, and convenient online booking with 24‑hour drop‑off. Communication is generally good — many reviewers mention clear explanations and helpful mechanics — but several people had to chase for completion calls or experienced booking mix‑ups. A minority report serious issues (unexpected extra charges, alleged post‑service engine problems, misdiagnoses and one instance of the garage being closed without notice), so it’s sensible to confirm quotes and appointments.

Book the Best Deal in Seconds to Stay in Control of Your MOT in Kettering

Booking an MOT in Kettering should be easy. It’s legally required for your car to always have a valid MOT certificate and the test itself only takes about an hour to do, so it makes sense that you just want a straightforward booking process at your local test centre.

So why can it sometimes feel like a chore to book an MOT slot?

If you’re fed up with waiting for a call back while your busy life also gets put on hold, enter your reg and postcode now to compare local MOT centres and book the best deal in seconds.

Make Sure Your Appointment Revolves Around You with a Range of Convenience Options & 24/7 Online Booking

It can be tough to find the time for your MOT test. Keeping your life on track is crucial, especially when you get an unexpected failure and you lose your car for an entire day while it’s repaired.

That’s why many test centres offer convenience options like vehicle collection and delivery, which you can add on to any MOT booking (additional charges may apply). You can get your car collected from home or your workplace, tested and then returned to the same place after it passes the inspection, making your life as easy as possible.

And with 24/7 online booking available, you can get your appointment booked whenever you have a couple of minutes spare – even if local MOT centres are shut. Perfect for getting peace of mind without the hassle, especially if you work unfavourable hours or struggle to find the time between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

 

A Transparent Process from Start to Finish

We’re dedicated to connecting you with your perfect Kettering MOT centre and ensuring you get the best deal every time.

It’s why we ensure there are no nasty surprises on the day by letting testers set their own prices and providing an open, honest comparison through the verified, unfiltered reviews from like-minded drivers who have previously used each garage.

When your car is as important to you as we know it is, the last thing you want to do is entrust it to the wrong MOT centre. When you book your appointment through our comparison site, that will never happen as we give you everything you need to make the right decision.

With thousands of 5* reviews across Trustpilot, Google and for our garages directly, when you choose a Kettering MOT centre through BookMyGarage.com, you can rest easy knowing that your vehicle is in the capable hands it deserves.

 

Always Ensure Exceptional Value for Money, Whatever Matters Most to You

Getting the best deal matters; it could even be the difference between you having a positive and negative experience at a local test centre.

We make it a breeze for you to get the best value for money on your MOT in Kettering, whatever that looks like for you.

If you want to book the cheapest MOT near you, choose the highest rated local test centre or get a same- or next-day appointment to get your inspection sorted ASAP, you can find your perfect option by sorting the results accordingly.

Most importantly, you get the best value for money in just 3 steps with our online booking process, so everything gets sorted in seconds – and you pay the garage directly after all the work is done*, so there are no extra booking fees or hidden costs to worry about either.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How do I know I’m getting the best deal on my MOT in Kettering?

Finding a highly-rated MOT centre with dozens of 5* reviews from previous customers that offers a reasonable discount on the UK maximum MOT price of £54.85 is always a good way to book the best deal.

If the best deal for you also includes a garage that’s nearby and can fit you in tomorrow, make sure you take these factors into consideration when comparing your options by sorting and filtering our comparison results accordingly.

How can I filter MOT centres another way?

Whatever value for money looks like for you and your vehicle, we’ve got you covered. Once you enter your reg and postcode, you can click the ‘Sort By’ box in the top right-hand corner of the results to sort local MOT centres by Price, Availability, Distance, Reviews or even by Name if you’re looking for a particular one.

That way, you can easily find the cheapest, nearest or highest rated Kettering MOT centre in seconds – and you can always revert to Relevance if you don’t immediately find your perfect option.

I can’t afford to take time off work for my car’s MOT test, can you help me fit it into my normal day?

Yes, many MOT centres listed on our platform offer services like vehicle collection and delivery and customer drop-offs as well as loan cars to help busy drivers fit their inspection into their normal day.

If this sounds like what you need to take the stress out of your MOT in Kettering, you can filter the search results by checking the relevant box on the left-hand sidebar. This will ensure you only see local test centres that can offer the convenient add-on you need.

Please note that these services may incur an additional charge.

If my car fails the test, how will I know how much repairs will cost?

Test centres price each repair individually based on the scale of the job and your vehicle’s age, condition and make and model. As such, you may not know exactly how much the work will cost until after the inspection.

If you’re worried about a specific part failing the MOT, you can compare instant prices for this repair before you book your appointment to find a garage that offers the best deal on both services. You can also compare local labour rates if we can’t yet provide instant prices for the job you need or you’re dealing with an unknown problem.

Can I trust the MOT centre I’ve chosen?

All reviews shown on our platform have been left by genuine customers and detail their exact experience with each Kettering test centre.

If you’re contemplating an MOT centre with dozens of detailed 5* reviews, it indicates a high standard of customer care over a prolonged period, allowing you to book an appointment with confidence.

Can I get a better deal by booking my car’s service at the same time?

Absolutely! We strongly recommend booking your MOT and service in Kettering together, not least because you can get a discount on the cost of your MOT by doing so.

Combining both elements of regular maintenance into one appointment can also make your life easier by removing the stress of finding two days a year to keep life moving without your vehicle.

If this sounds like great value for money, make sure you select the service your vehicle needs from the left-hand sidebar after you enter your reg and postcode and then compare your options to find the one offering the best deal.

Do I need to call the MOT centre to confirm the appointment?

No, you should always receive proactive confirmation from your chosen test centre once they receive your booking. If you book your MOT out of hours, you may need to wait until they next open to receive this confirmation.

We only recommend contacting them yourself if you haven’t heard anything the day before your appointment, especially if you booked in advance, as the email you receive from us does not count as official confirmation and we wouldn’t want you to suffer a stressful experience on the day.

Will the MOT centre honour the price I’m booking?

Every test centre listed on our platform sets all their own prices, so what you see is what you pay. The price will never change unless your car needs a repair after a failed MOT, or you agree to additional repairs with the tester directly.

How much can I expect my MOT to cost?

Based on previous bookings made at Kettering MOT centres through our platform, you can expect to pay £37.08, on average, for your inspection.

On average, this is a 32% saving on the maximum UK MOT price of £54.85. Some test centres may offer an even bigger saving, so it pays to compare your options if you’re looking to book the cheapest MOT near you.
