MOT Testing

[Simon W700]

Hi all, I’m looking for suggestions for a Westy friendly MoT tester in Aidrie /Coatbridge area. It’s that time of year, and it’s the first time I’ve put mine through the process. TIA.

No specific recommendations, but I’ve always found that the small independent places are more likely to be Westfield friendly. Even more so if they know you face from MOT’ing your other cars…

I was thinking this too. Good to know the thinking is valid

Q plates have an easier time at MOT's. No emissions test required, just visible smoke.

Is yours a Q or age related?

Was on an age related plate (2013),  now on a personal plate, so not a q plate either way.

I take mine to my local garage in Crossford; he does my cars but he doesn't give them any leniency.  

 

To be honest I'd take it to an independent local to you that you have or can build up some sort of relationship with.
