Class 4 and Class 7 MOT testing from DB Autos, Salem Street, Stoke-on-Trent.
Cars and smaller passenger vehicles.
Larger vans within the Class 7 category.
City-centre knocks, lights and plates before test day
Hanley is the busy centre of the Potteries, and cars that live around it tend to lead a stop-start life of tight car parks, kerbside parking and short hops. Scuffed number plates, loose mirrors and tired bulbs are common results of that, and they are the sort of thing an MOT tester notices straight away.
A short run from Hanley brings you to DB Autos, where we are an MOT test centre. Cars pay £40 for a Class 4 test and larger vans in Class 7 pay £50. We go through the test, tell you what we found in plain language, and if repairs are needed we price them before touching anything. Booking is online at dbautosmottest.co.uk or by phone.
Town-centre driving means lots of low-speed manoeuvres, and parking bumps can leave a number plate cracked or a light lens damaged without you noticing. Before you come in, walk round the car in daylight and look at both plates, the lamps and the mirrors. Check the horn works and the wipers clear the screen without smearing. If you do a lot of stop-start driving, take a moment to look at the tyre sidewalls for scuffs from kerbs. Hanley is just 1 mile from the Salem Street garage, so you can have the car checked and still be back quickly.
We test against the required MOT standards and explain the result plainly.
