Very disappointed. Took a Class 5 vehicle for MoT, only to be told "Don't do Class 5". J F MOT Centre advertise Class 5, still advertise Class 5 but don't do them.

Would very much recommend this place for any car issues. They managed to book me in for an urgent MOT and managed to do all repairs over the weekend, so I didn't miss any time off work. Very fairly priced, when I asked for an estimation of the price, they hadn't inspected the brakes yet and gave me a quote including and excluding replacing the brakes. After inspection they called me up and let me know that the brakes were not necessary to replace, thus I was not charged the lesser amount. No unnecessary work was done.
