I needed to arrange an MOT at short notice. It was easy to arrange, we were notified when the MOT was finished and constructive advice given on any advisories. Friendly service, would use again

Friendly Staff, clean tidy waiting area and dealt with my MOT bang on the appointment time so no waiting unnecessarily..
Fantastic service from these people, who managed to fit me in with an almost impossibly short lead-time. Sadly, seemingly scheduled to close around March 2022, and I really hope there will be a last-m... See more

Hi Tim,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review and for your kind words.
We're glad you were pleased!
Very bad experience…
Very bad experience...
Very bad experience last MOT they recording an issue that doesn't exist after bring then Van to the Garage and now very microscopic so if you got and old car it is preferable don't do the MOT in this place just buy a new one...
After the above paragraph they reply to me (see down).
So let me tell you that I didn't refuse to pay and any aggressive or abussive behaviour happened. I just asked if I could have the opportunity to go to another MOT ( less stricted and microscopic before you record the enormous minir advisories list on the computer) just looking for a 2nd opinion because any of those suddenly minor faults were saw in my first MOT year.
As a very experienced driver I fully understand if something is broken it must be replaced but unfortunately you didn't give me the opportunity to show me that fault properly and it was my 3rd MOT with you not the 2nd one. I do not recommend your MOT service to anyone.
Thank you
Furthermore after repair and put a new spring they refuse to produce the re-test telling me it is because my rating post.
Unfortunately or fortunately for all future customers they showed what such of unprofessional and discriminatory staff they are toward customers just because have different approach of an issue and left a bad rate here.
So please be very cautious if you go and avoid that bunch...

Dear Jose,
I’m sorry that you've had a negative experience.
Because this is very unusual I have taken the opportunity to investigate the issue you raised by reviewing records of your MOT test, CCTV of your visit and by speaking with the staff who were on duty at the time. I have also heard from another local garage whom you recently approached regarding repairs to your van. In so doing I've looked for any area which we could have provided a better service to you.
It would seem that you were very unhappy after your vehicle failed the MOT test and as a result you initially refused to pay the MOT test fee. This is not acceptable as the fee is payable regardless of the outcome.
Please note that we have no hidden agenda and we do not “write off” anybody's vehicle. We see several hundred vehicles each week, many much older than yours and most far better maintained.
Our only function is to provide safety testing in accordance with the regulations set by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). Where a vehicle is inspected and found to be unroadworthy, it will fail the MOT test. For the safety of other road users, if you wish to continue using such a vehicle on a public road then you must have the faulty component repaired. This is the purpose of the MOT testing scheme.
You know this as since you acquired your van in 2018 you have brought it to us twice before for MOT testing. Each time it has failed the MOT on a safety critical item and required immediate repair.
Your Ford Transit has now travelled 244,569 miles and it's reasonable to expect that some components will have reached the end of their serviceable life and require replacement.
As it happens only one major defect was identified on your vehicle this year, a cracked suspension spring. Any crack in any suspension component is cause to fail the MOT test (however big or small) as it represents a weakening of that part compared to when it was new, placing it at too great a risk of failure on the public highway to be acceptable.
You can appeal an MOT test result if you think it's wrong. Details of the official MOT appeals process can be found here https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/complain-about-an-mot
At this time we are aware that COVID-19 and other external pressures can cause a great deal of stress and anxiety for motorists. However;
Kindly note that aggressive or abusive behaviour toward our staff will not be tolerated.

Easy and convenient
Easy to book a convenient slot online. The service was good during my actual visit. Have been going there for several years now. Can’t fault MOTSTOP.

Hi Robert, thank you for your review.
We are always glad to hear from happy customers!
I take all my cars to motstop.
I take all my cars to motstop. They only do mot's, so they are not tempted to find anything wrong in order to make money from their clients. They are always fair and flexible. They give your car a free re-test, if something needs doing, so you have time to fix it. A very good service.

The place to go if you don’t want to get ripped off
Always use these guys for all my vehicles, won’t stitch you up for extra work as they don’t do the repairs, having been in the motor trade & knowing how it works in some garages this is the way to go.
