MOT Testing
DVSA approved Class 4 test bay. We test cars and light vans the way the regulations say they should be tested, no shortcuts. If you fail on something small we can usually sort it the same day and free retest within 10 working days.
Independent workshop. MOT testing, full servicing, repairs. Booked online. Done right.
Independent workshop, fitted out for everything from a routine service to a major repair. Honest diagnostics, fair quotes, and the same standard whether the car is two years old or twenty.
No jargon. No drama. If you want to know what the part does and why it has gone, we will tell you. If you just want it fixed, we will get on with it.
No upsell scripts from a head office. No targets to push extras you do not need. The same mechanic looks after your car each time you come in.
Twelve-month parts-and-labour warranty on everything we fit. If anything we have done fails inside that window we put it right at our cost.
Most of our work is repeat. People bring the next car. Their kids bring theirs. That only happens when you do the work properly the first time.
No upsell scripts. No mystery line items. Quote first, work second, payment when you collect the keys.

Routine servicing on EVs and hybrids. Regen braking, 12V auxiliary battery, cabin heat-pump checks and high-voltage isolation. We work on Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Toyota and Tesla. Battery health diagnostics included with every EV service.
Regas, leak detection and pollen filter on both standard R134a and the newer R1234yf systems. We check for leaks before we refill rather than just topping up and sending you on your way for it to fail again in a month.
We are not the cheapest garage in town and we do not pretend to be. What we are is honest, careful and slow to take shortcuts. If we tell you a job needs doing it is because it needs doing, and if we tell you it can wait it is because it can wait.
Live diary. Pick a slot, get instant confirmation. No phone tag. No held-on-hold. If a slot shows green, it's yours.
No call-back. No "we'll get back to you." Real slots, real-time, on the page.
Enter your registration. We pull the live DVSA record. You see expiry date, mileage history, last test result, and any advisories from previous tests. All free. No sign-up.
Get a text three weeks before your MOT is due. One message. We will not sell your number or pile on the marketing.
Real cars on the ramp. Real fixes, photographed and explained. Honest about the awkward ones too.

Owner asked if it could wait. The honest answer was no. Replaced belt, tensioner, water pump together. One bill, one job, no comebacks.

Owner-driver had a load on, pipe blew on the way back from a job. Recovered in, fitted, MOT'd, back on the road next morning.

Owner had been topping up weekly. Pressure-tested the system, found the water pump weeping at the shaft. Photo'd it before we touched anything.

A Fiesta service done with OE filters and proper oil, stamped and reported, for less than what some chains charge for an oil-only change.
ReadIf your question is not here, just call us. Plain answers, no jargon.
You can. We have a small waiting area with proper coffee and Wi-Fi. An MOT takes around 45 to 60 minutes. If we find anything that needs attention we will speak to you in person before doing any further work.
Yes. You can MOT a car up to one calendar month before the expiry date and keep the same renewal date. We recommend booking two to three weeks before to give yourself room if anything needs sorting.
Follow the manufacturer schedule. For most modern cars that is somewhere between 60,000 and 100,000 miles, or every 5 to 7 years, whichever comes first. We always replace the water pump and tensioner at the same time. It is cheaper than going back in twice.
Yes. Parts and labour are covered for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. If a part we have fitted fails inside that window we will replace it free of charge.
Call us. For local jobs we can usually arrange recovery at a fair rate. If you have breakdown cover, your provider will recover to a garage of your choice, so ask them to bring it to us.
We do. Several local businesses use us for routine servicing, MOTs and tyre changes on their vans. Monthly invoicing available. Ask for a fleet rate sheet.
Customer parking on site. Coffee while you wait if you stick around.
