Reviews Summary

AI Generated

Customers consistently praise the friendly, helpful staff and clear communication, with many highlighting the handy video vehicle inspections, fair pricing and the lovely touch of having their car washed and hoovered after a service or MOT. A small number of reviewers mentioned waiting longer than expected for updates on collection times, and one felt a minor charge could have been explained more clearly, but these were isolated points against an otherwise strong reputation for reliable, good-value work.

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.
You will need an MOT, by law, if you drive a vehicle registered three or more years ago. This means that all drivers of vehicles registered in or before 2020 must book an MOT in 2023.

If your car is less than three years old, you do not need an MOT, but you can choose to book one if you wish.
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.
