Reviews Summary

AI Generated

Customers overwhelmingly praise the garage for friendly, professional staff, clear communication and fast turnaround, frequently mentioning competitive pricing, convenient collection/delivery and complimentary valeting. A minority of reviews report unexpected or high repair costs — one reviewer described a brake issue after work and several felt wheel alignment or shock replacements were overpriced. Strongly recommended by many, but sensible to ask for an itemised quote and confirm repairs before authorisation.

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 Richmond upon Thames without a valid MOT certificate.

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

Can I Drive After a Failed MOT?

You can only drive your car after a failed MOT if:
● The MOT certificate from the previous year is still valid
● No ‘dangerous’ faults were recorded during the failure

You must not drive your car after a failed MOT if it doesn’t meet the above requirements.

How Long is MOT Valid?

An MOT is valid for 12 months. This is calculated from the date of your test to the exact same date the following year.

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).

If you complete the repairs yourself and choose to take your car into a different test centre, you will need to pay for the full test again.
