We Specialise in
MOT Testing - The MOT scheme is primarily a road safety measure designed to ensure as far as possible that all cars, motorcycles and light goods vehicles more than 3 years old meet minimum safety standards. At least once a year your car will be examined at an authorised MOT test station to make sure that it complies with certain important requirements of the law. The test certificate and examination however, only relates to the condition of the testable items at the time of the test and should not be regarded as evidence of their condition at any other time; nor should it be accepted as evidence of the general mechanical condition of the vehicle. MOT a Car aim to give you the best advice on your car and its annual MOT test and any repairs if necessary in order to pass. Hence our motto: " MOT a Car - keeping you on the road "
Servicing - Most modern cars only need a service once a year, but older cars require a service once every six months. The manufacturer's service handbook will set what is best for your car. The type of service you need will also be affected by how you use your car. For example, lots of short journeys where the engine does not have a chance to warm up properly will probably mean more frequent oil and filter changes. MOT a Car has access to manufacturers service schedules on computer and can advise you on the appropriate service that is due.
