What To Look For In A Great Mot Garage

Getting your MOT done can be quite a stressful time

, especially if you've never used a garage in your area before. After all, the garage industry doesn't have a great name for honesty and finding a decent, reliable and most importantly - affordable - garage can be quite difficult. Sifting through the wheat from the chaff is all a part of choosing which garage to get you car MOTd in, however there are some ways in which you can speed up the process and avoid lingering around too many dodgy dealers.

One of the best and easiest ways to do this is to ask people you know - and most importantly people who drive - where they have had their car MOTd. If you are new to the area it is worth asking in your workplace. Ask your colleagues and perhaps even consider sending an email around the office. If you are a part of any organisations such as a gym, church or evening class, be sure to ask the people you meet there, as these will be some of the most reliable information sources you will find.

Pay particular attention to the garages and test stations that people discourage you from visiting. While few people remember a good garage, everybody is able to recount negative experiences they've had with garages and it's important to not make the same mistakes. Some common examples in the MOT industry include garages purposely failing cars in order to upsell them particular servicing and repairs. If you are really concerned about this, you could consider visiting an MOT only garage as these garages will not suggest you need to get your car maintained with them.

The internet is another great place to go for information, particularly online forums. Do a search for local garages in your area to see what pops up, for example if you were living in Glasgow, simply type in Glasgow MOT or recommended MOT garages in Glasgow to see what pops up. You will be surprised to see the amount of information that's out there about individual garages as customers recount their good and bad experiences with garages in their city.

If you can't find any information on good quality MOT garages in your area, don't be afraid to ask. One of the best places to do this is bulletin boards or forums, and you will quickly find plenty of people willing to reply to you with useful information straight away.

Whatever you do, be sure to research. After all, failing to plan is planning to fail and this is particularly true in the MOT industry. However, if you do your research and look out for quality garages with large numbers of reviews and recommendations by others, you will quickly find yourself a quality deal and perhaps a garage to visit for as long as you live in the area.
