Reviews Summary

Most customers praise friendly, professional staff, clear communication and quick MOT/service turnaround, often noting added conveniences like collection/delivery, inspection videos and complimentary washes. A recurring downside is cost—many find repairs and parts expensive—and there are occasional reports of poor communication, delays, cleanliness issues and a few isolated unprofessional incidents, so consistency of value and reliability can vary.

The garage receives glowing praise for friendly, professional staff, speedy turnarounds, honest advice and fair pricing — customers often mention attentive recovery help, protective measures (seat/steering covers) and small extras like free air fresheners. A minority report booking problems, unexpected closures and poor communication — examples include jobs cancelled part‑way through the day and cars handed back without any handover or apology. Most reviewers remain long‑term, loyal customers who strongly recommend this family‑run garage despite those occasional operational lapses.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What is an MOT Test?

An MOT test, or Ministry of Transport Test, is an essential annual vehicle check to assess roadworthiness and safety standards. It ensures all vehicles on UK roads are maintained to a certain standard, improving road safety standards in the process.

What Do I Do if My MOT is Overdue?

If your MOT is overdue, you must book a test immediately. It is illegal to drive on public roads in and around Motherwell without a valid MOT certificate.

You can book an MOT online today by entering your vehicle registration and postcode into our comparison site.

When is it Legal to Drive Without an MOT Certificate?

It is only legal to drive without a valid MOT certificate if you are on your way to a pre-booked MOT test or to have the failed defects fixed. If you are stopped by the police, you must be able to prove that you have a booked appointment and confirm it with the test centre or garage.

If you are caught on a public road without a valid MOT certificate, and you can’t meet the above criteria, you can be fined up to £1,000. There is a further £2,500 fine if your vehicle is found to be unroadworthy. You will also receive 3 points on your driving licence if it is deemed to be dangerous.

Driving without an MOT certificate also invalidates your car insurance. This brings an unlimited fine, potential disqualification from driving and 6-8 points on your licence.

How Long Does an MOT Take?

An MOT usually takes between 45 and 60 minutes. Many garages offer an ‘MOT-while-you-wait’ service with waiting rooms and refreshments onsite.

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.

Why Do MOT Tests Include an Exhaust Emissions Test?

The MOT test includes an exhaust emissions test to ensure that your vehicle’s engine is operating efficiently and producing minimal air pollution. It is part of an international effort to reduce the effects of harmful carbon emissions on the planet.

If your vehicle fails the exhaust emissions test or doesn’t have enough fuel to sit this test, the tester must record an automatic MOT failure.
