Annual Vehicle Inspections Every Solihull Driver Needs

Your annual MOT is a legal requirement once your vehicle reaches three years old, ensuring it meets essential safety and environmental standards. This comprehensive inspection covers everything from braking systems and lighting to emissions and structural integrity. Without a valid certificate, you can't legally drive through Solihull's bustling town centre or along the A41, and you won't be able to renew your vehicle tax, making this inspection crucial for staying compliant and safe on our local roads.

Solihull Resident

Absolutely brilliant service from start to finish. They collected my car from outside my office in Solihull town centre, tested it at their facility, and had it back to me by 4pm with the certificate. Saved me taking half a day off work and the price was very reasonable. Will definitely use them again next year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our services and how we can help you

Do you provide MOT testing throughout Solihull?

Yes, we offer free collection and delivery across all Solihull areas including B91, Shirley, Knowle, Dorridge, and Olton. Our decade-plus experience serving local drivers means we understand Solihull's roads and the common issues vehicles face here. We'll collect your car, test it at our DVSA-approved facility, and return it to you.

How much does an MOT cost in Solihull?

You'll find our testing competitively priced with transparent, fixed costs and no hidden fees. The exact price depends on your vehicle type, but we provide honest quotes upfront before any work begins. Unlike some garages that use low test prices to push unnecessary repairs, we give you straight assessments and fair pricing.

Can you collect my car for MOT testing in Solihull?

Absolutely—we collect your vehicle free of charge from anywhere in Solihull using our specialised transport trucks. You don't need to arrange drop-off, take time off work, or stress over logistics. We handle everything, test your car at our DVSA-approved centre, then deliver it back with the certificate or a transparent explanation of any repairs needed.

How long does the MOT process take?

The actual inspection takes 45-60 minutes, but we offer same-day availability for the complete service including collection and return. If your vehicle passes, you'll have it back with the certificate the same day. Should any repairs be needed, we can often complete those immediately too, thanks to our comprehensive facility.

What happens if my vehicle fails the MOT?

We'll explain exactly what failed and why, then provide a transparent, fixed-price quote for the necessary repairs before any work begins. Unlike test-only centres, our fully equipped garage can address the issues immediately using quality parts backed by warranties. You'll also get a free retest within 10 days once repairs are complete.

When should I book my MOT in Solihull?

You can take your test up to a month before it expires without losing any time—the new certificate adds to your existing expiry date. We offer same-day availability for urgent situations, but booking ahead ensures your preferred time slot. Driving without a valid certificate risks a £1,000 fine.

Why choose your garage over mobile mechanics?

Mobile mechanics can only perform basic roadside checks and aren't equipped for official testing—you need a DVSA-approved facility like ours. We have the certified equipment, qualified testers, and comprehensive workshop to conduct proper inspections and handle any repairs that arise. Mobile mechanics manage less than 10% of repairs; we handle everything.

What makes your MOT testing trustworthy in Solihull?

We're a family-run business with over 10 years serving Solihull and a 4.9 rating from nearly 2,900 customers—most of our new business comes from word-of-mouth referrals. Our DVSA-approved centre follows certified testing standards, and we've built our reputation on honest assessments without pressure tactics.
