Car MOT Test Checks, York

Helon Melon

Really good, decent price, nice people and did the job quickly. Definitely going here for any future work.

Paul Brett

So glad I found this garage. They’re honest, exceptionally helpful and completely nonpatronising, which is always a relief for someone who knows little about cars. Excellent value as well- they’ll use their experience to find a workaround a problem rather than just replacing and expensive part if possible. Couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Why does my car need an MOT Test?

If your vehicle is over 3 years old, in addition to the obvious safety aspects, if you do not have a valid MOT certificate you cannot drive your car lawfully on the road and you won’t be able to renew your car tax.

What is involved in an MOT test?

An MOT involves dozens of checks on your car, ranging from the brakes and fuel system to lights, mirrors, seatbelts, windscreen wipers and exhaust system.

What happens if my car fails its MOT test

On 20 May 2018, the MOT categories for fails and passes changed. If your car has a dangerous fault, you won’t be able to drive it away. If you do wish to take your vehicle elsewhere you should have it towed. If your car has a major fault, you may be able to drive it away if it is still roadworthy and your previous MOT has not expired. If you drive a vehicle without an MOT or with dangerous faults you can be fined up to £2,500 or receive points on your license.

How do I prepare my vehicle for an MOT test?

Make sure your screen wash is topped up, check your bulbs are working and the car is clean with the lamps, mirrors and registration plates visible. Make sure nothing is blocking the driver’s view and that there are no warning lights on the dash. If in doubt give us a call.

Can I finance my MOT repairs?

Yes, you can split any bill between £250 to £1,000 with no credit checks, no interest and no fees.

Can I wait whilst getting my MOT done?

Yes, we have a clean and comfortable waiting area for our customers, with complimentary refreshments and magazines if you wish to wait while we work on your car.

Do I need to pay for an MOT retest?

Included in our Bronze MOT test package is: MOT Test £10.00 retest fee within 10 working days*. However, our Silver and Gold class packages include FREE retests.
