I always use my local village garage for MOT,s. At £50 it isn't the cheapest but he is a good honest bloke who is very good at his job so Im happy to give him a bit of support.

For the sake of a few quid it,s worth it.

Same here, I like to support local Brackley businesses. Even if he did fail me on a dingly dangly in the past. But we don't mention that.

I also know dodgy outfits like Halfords and quickfit fail and charge for headlight aiming etc.

If the headlight aim is out of tolerance, it is a fail , even if  just one bulb needs replacing ,it's a fail ,must be entered on the VTS device as a fail, then repaired, then part retest 
not that i'm sticking up for Halfrauds or quicksh!t
you can't do repairs ,however minor, during a test

but i suspect your implying that such outfits fail on such items ,even though they are fine ,just to meet sales targets etc bump up the bill
you could be right 

Sadly I know they do! Well a certain branch anyway 😡😡😡😡

£53 at my local garage which is 5 minutes walk from home. 

There's nothing worse than taking your car somewhere and ending up walking the streets while they test or fix it.

I'd fail you if you got your todger out during the MOT, too 


I tend to pay full whack at Autobarn, as they're walking distance from my house (local BMW/Merc/etc specialist) .. think I'll be going to Webby and saving the £20 in future, though
