There will be no claims made on customer insurance, therefore this will not be affected.

If your car is left with us for repair, we will conduct the necessary re-test before it is returned to you. If we drop your car back, you will need to re-book it with us for a re-test.
As the service incudes car collection and delivery, we require that your car’s tank be at least ¼ full. This will be enough to cover any travel time and any required road tests.
Even if your MOT has expired, in most cases, we can still provide our Collect My Vehicle service.
A vehicle can legally be driven directly to and from a pre-booked MOT Test within a reasonable distance of around 10 miles - with the exception of very rural areas where there are less test stations locally.
Roadworthy for the purpose of the MOT Test means that the vehicle meets the minimum requirements and the items which require inspection for the particular vehicle must meet these minimum requirements.
Road legal is a different standard which would include a valid MOT certificate, insurance and tax.
We will call you and discuss any work required and once agreed, we can simply arrange secure payment over the phone.
This service includes car derived vans and estate cars but excludes larger commercial vans and campervans. Please call the centre if you’re not sure.
