Before Your MOT

There is no need to bring anything with you on the day, unless you have an imported vehicle. In that instance, please bring your log book along to the appointment.

However, there are some basic checks that we recommend all drivers carry out in advance of their MOT. They do not guarantee a pass, but help to prevent simple faults and delays on the day. They include checking that:

Your lights are working

Your tyres look safe and legal

Your washer fluid is topped up

Your oil and water levels are correct

Your number plates are clean and readable

Your vehicle is clean enough to be inspected properly

On The Day

You are welcome to wait while your MOT is carried out. We have a small reception area available on-site. However, many customers choose to wait at Costa Coffee or Asda - both of which are just a short walk away.

What We Check During Your MOT

Our DVSA-approved technicians will ensure that your vehicle meets the minimum levels of safety and worthiness. This includes:

LightsSeat beltsTyresBrakesSuspensionSteeringExhaustBody conditionCorrosionDashboard warning lightsBrake pipesWheel bearings

If Your Vehicle Fails Its MOT

In most instances your vehicle will pass and you will receive your MOT certificate.

If it fails, we will explain the result clearly to you and talk you through the next steps. We will talk through any failure items and advisories, so you understand what has been found and the areas that require attention.

We offer a free retest if you rebook within 10 working days of your failed test.
