Compare Salisbury MOT Centres & Book an Appointment at the Best One Before Your Expiry Date to Ensure Your Vehicle is Road Legal
If your car is due an MOT test, you must book an appointment before the expiry date to continue driving on the roads around Salisbury. The test checks whether your car meets road safety and environmental standards, and you will be prosecuted if caught driving without a valid MOT certificate.
The only exception to this rule is if you are driving it to a garage for repairs after a failed test or to a pre-booked MOT.
Book your MOT well in advance to avoid the risk of missing your test date. You can book up to 12 months in advance through our online comparison site and save up to 70% on an MOT near you in the process by comparing deals.

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, 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).
While you can book an MOT at any registered test centre in Salisbury that displays a sign with three interlocked white triangles on a blue background on their premises, this doesn’t guarantee the most reliable option. We would always recommend comparing all your options before deciding on the best one.
To see which garages offer MOT testing on weekends, enter your reg and postcode into our comparison site and tick the boxes on the left-hand side marked ‘Saturday MOT’ or ‘Sunday MOT’. This will filter the results to only show the garages that can complete your MOT test on one of these days.
You will have to pay an additional fee for the repairs, which the garage will quote you for before beginning the process.
If you wish to complete the repairs yourself or take your vehicle to a different garage for the repairs, you must return to the original garage within 1 day for a free retest or 10 days for a partial MOT retest. This costs less than the initial MOT price.
If you take your vehicle to a different test centre after completing the repairs, or return more than 10 days after the initial test, you will need to pay the full MOT fee again.
You may only take your vehicle away from the original MOT centre if:
● The MOT certificate from the previous year is still valid
● No ‘dangerous’ faults were recorded during the failure
To see whether there are any mobile mechanics which organise MOT testing in Salisbury, enter your reg and postcode into our comparison site at the top of the page and tick the box on the left-hand side to filter by ‘mobile garages only’.
You can then book an appointment with a suitable mobile technician in just a few steps.
If you’re looking for a joint MOT and service deal near you, enter your reg and postcode into our comparison site and select ‘MOT’ and the car service you want. This will show you the combined price at garages in your area, allowing you to choose the best deal and book in just a few steps.
You should keep in contact with your chosen garage as they fix your car if you need it retested as soon as possible. However, retest slots do depend on the garage having the availability to carry out the repair work and re-inspect your car so the time it takes can vary depending on how busy they are.
If you have booked an appointment through BookMyGarage.com in the past, we will automatically send you generic MOT reminders as part of our Duty of Care to all UK drivers. This is to reduce the risk of you forgetting your MOT and being caught driving without one, which is illegal.
