Always have my cars mot'd here. The owners and staff are always friendly. Completely honest unbiased testing. The two owners are really knowledgeable about classic and modern classic cars and put a big effort into looking after specialist and modified cars during the test. Whether you just want an honest opinion or you want a place to take your pride and joy, this is the best place around.
