  • for those in the Newcastle-Under-Lyme / Stoke / Surrounding areas i would highly recommend the Newcastle-Under-Lyme council MOT testing centre.

    Opposite the new newcastle college the reception staff for the council are hit n miss with friendliness but the mot testing centre offer really friendly and helpful staff.

    After my MOT I had a few questions and the tester came out to my car with me and spent half hour showing me exactly what needed doing to pass (free retest although poster in the office shows otherwise ;))

    Link for details is www*dot*newcastle-staffs*dot*gov*dot*uk/mot

    (Rchange *dot* to "." forum won't let me post links)
  • Hi, I would like to thank Martins Money and all the people that contribute to the forum.:beer:
    I booked my 1993 Metro in for MOT at Montague Street Council Depot. Went yesterday and got absolutly first class service, staff were polite, friendly, and very professional. I would recommend this to anyone needing an MOT in Birmingham.:j
    Needless to say my car passed :T

    Hi,
    I can recommend the Stoke City Council centre - I found it through this site in the first place, although they are really busy so need at least a couple of weeks notice to get you in.

    First MOT I've passed first time on about 6 years, and also a full explaination of the couple of advisory notes.

    Hope this helps someone out
  • Telford I recommend:

    JUST MOT's
    Church Road, Donnington Wood, Telford TF2 7PT
    01952 606456

    Good honest and friendly service, they can also collect your car.

    They don't carry out repairs so again no vested interest to fail your car.

    You won't be let down.
  • I recently used my local Nuneaton council and had no problems. No issues with my 13 year old Peugoet. It's definitely worth looking at using these places since they have no motivation to rip you off. Wish I had went there before.

    Thanks

    very good company, some branches have started to carry out fixed price services & air con.
  • Anyone know if there's a Warwick District Council MOT centre?

    Thanks.
  • I'm going to use the Telford Depot tomorrow so will repost with my feedback. Must say, the member of staff I booked it with was lovely :A I'm expecting good things
  • Can I recommend the Beeches Garage in the Great Barr area of Birmingham. I've used them for over 10 years now, reasonable prices (£47 MOT last year) no unnecessary works.

    If you are interested the address is 757 Aldridge Road, Great Barr, Birmingham, B44 8NN tel 0121 366 6799.

    Hope this is helpful to somebody :)

    I was just wondering if anyone knew of a test centre in Shrewsbury or near Shrewsbury at all? I would rather go to a council MOT centre, but don't want to travel out of Shropshire really. Any help is much appreciated.

    Have you tried Overton Service Station in Ludlow? We bought our car from them and they seem always very genuine.

    He offers some great advice and only replaces stuff that's necessary, and charges a lot less than other garages in the area.

    He's up at Ludford Bridge on the way out of Ludlow, small independent garage. He's always really busy for a small garage but then when you consider how good him and his team are it's understandable.
