MOT Test Centre
Everyone who uses a vehicle on the road is required to keep it in a roadworthy condition. The purpose of the MOT Test is to ensure that cars, and other vehicles are checked at least once a year to see that they comply with key road worthiness and environmental requirements. The MOT is a highly specialised examination of the majority of the safety-related components on a vehicle to ensure that they have not worn to such an excessive level so as to render the vehicle unsafe for the road. The test also includes a test on the vehicle's emissions. The UK MOT test now covers over 150 checks of safety-related and emissions systems.
The MOT test centre at Arnolds Garage offers MOT testing 6 days a week, on-site in our own fully equipped, VOSA approved computerised MOT testing station. All MOT tests are carried out by one of our two fully-qualified MOT testers. We can provide MOT testing for nearly all makes and models of car and Light Goods Vehicles (class 4 vehicles). We operate MOT testing for all petrol, diesel, and catalyst cars. If for any reason your vehicle does fail its MOT test we can offer a free retest if repairs are authorised and carried out on-site, without the vehicle leaving the premesis.
