MOT Testing
(Class 4 & Class 7).
A fully DVSA-approved test station within our Bristol workshop. Class 4 and Class 7 MOTs tested by senior examiners — with same-day slots, pre-MOT checks, in-house repairs and free retests.

Our DVSA-approved test lane at Unit 1A, Barton Hill Trading Estate is operated by senior examiners with decades of trade experience. We test cars (Class 4) and vans up to 3,500 kg (Class 7) to the exact letter of the manual — no upsells, no theatrics.
