I was wondering the same thing. My car MOT is due in the next couple of weeks and was wondering if any one had used the MOT Centre in Ivybridge ?
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks0 -
No centres for Somerset!
Nearest is Exeter.** Freebies and money saved with the help of you all? - Don't know ....lost count! **** Stay Safe **0 -
We contacted the VOSA testing station in Calne last year after Martin posted this information, it turns out they won't test private cars, only council vehicle and other public service vehicles.
If you google VOSA testing stations you get their website and it tells you what each station offers.
Can't seem to see any station (at least in the south west) that says it will test private cars.
