What we can and cannot tell you about a garage

DVSA MOT-authorised

Sourced from published DVSA data. It means the site is authorised to carry out MOT tests in the vehicle classes shown on its page. Name, address, phone number and tested classes come from the same source.

Verified servicing & repairs - not yet held

MOT authorisation says nothing about whether a centre also services cars, does repairs or fits tyres, what it charges, or when it is open. We do not publish a servicing or repair claim for any centre until we hold verified, sourced capability data for it. Until then, confirm directly with the garage.

Garages by town

The busiest towns in the register. Every town we hold is listed on the browse page.

How to choose a local garage

Get an itemised written quote before work starts, and agree a limit for extra work.
Ask what warranty covers parts and labour, and for how long.
Check the garage works to a published checklist for servicing, not just a price tier.
Ask whether your service will be recorded in the service book or a digital service record.
For an electric or hybrid, confirm high-voltage training before booking.
Keep every invoice - a documented history supports resale value.

Where this data comes from

Station names, addresses, phone numbers and tested vehicle classes come from the DVSA active MOT stations dataset, published by the DVSA under the Open Government Licence v3.0. The register covers England, Scotland and Wales; Northern Ireland runs a separate, government-operated MOT scheme and is not included. Being on the register means a site is authorised to carry out MOT tests - it is not a rating, an endorsement or a guarantee of any other service.

Release used on this site: 26 February 2026. GOV.UK says this list is updated around every 3 months, so stations may have opened or closed since the release date. Always confirm details with the station before travelling.

We hold no verified record of servicing, repair or tyre capability, prices, opening hours or availability for any centre listed here.
