Not mates rates... well kinda. I've spent so much in their garage (unifit plymouth) that they take pity on me and my various sheds.Brianmoooore wrote:Where's that then, Munky? Or is it mates rates?munky30 wrote:£20 with free retake within 7 days and basic service (fluids) thrown in for free.
I also pay cash and get them to do the work to make it pass.

£30.
£10 payable if you fail, then the remaining £20 when you return and hopefully pass.

I thought the price was supposed to be standardised since the launch of the new computer based certification. With a top end fee for testing at £54?

can't get an MOT for less than £50 in Bournemouth, Swansea can be anything from £30-£50, but usually passes at a £50 garage and doesn't at a £30 garage.

Mine cost £30 , but that is a trade rate, and he tells me to fix the faults he finds , so it always passes!!!

Very similar to the arrangement I have, but unfortunately the test station is 150 miles away!topspark wrote:Mine cost £30 , but that is a trade rate, and he tells me to fix the faults he finds , so it always passes!!!

Just to clarify, my garage that charges £25 that is his standard rate, and my car's do fail if they're not right. Just put Jayne's Volvo 480 in and it failed on everything from Headlamp aim to handbrake travel. All fair cops mind. Just got to get my ass in gear to sort it out (or scrap it).
