MOT testing station
The council operates an approved public MOT testing station for cars and light vans. Our current charge is £45 (car) £55 (light van).
Our MOT station offers scheduled appointments, providing an unbiased report if your vehicle fails the test or emissions standard.
As we do not undertake repairs, our testing is impartial, with no risk of unnecessary repairs being recommended.
You are allowed to have an MOT test up to four weeks before the expiry date, and we can carry out your MOT while you wait.
