What’s this about?

Paying for MOT repairs can take a hefty wack from your wallet. Yet there's a way to cut this cost. The first point of call is read the full Cheap MOTs article. This discussion is specifically to talk about MOTs in your local area:

If you want to discuss cheap MOTs in general please go to the Cheap MOTs Discussion.

If you’ve got a suggestion/tip

Simply click reply and add your suggestion, though it's worth scanning down first to check it's not been duplicated.

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.
Thanks

Default Calne Vehicle Testing Station

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.
