Kerbside cars and the knocks they collect
Cars that live on the street, as many do in older residential parts of Stoke-on-Trent like Penkhull, tend to collect small knocks. A nudged mirror, a loose number plate or a cracked light lens can appear overnight and go unnoticed. Since the MOT looks at exactly these things, a walk-round with fresh eyes before the test is worthwhile.
Close to Penkhull, DB Autos runs an MOT test centre. A Class 4 test is priced at £40, a Class 7 test at £50. Should anything fail, you will hear what the problem is and which repair makes sense, and the decision on any extra work is left entirely to you, with no pressure either way.
Start at the front and work round the car in daylight. Check the number plates are secure and clean. Look at headlight and tail light lenses for cracks that let moisture in. Wiggle each wing mirror gently and check the glass is intact. Run a hand over the tyres' sidewalls, where kerbs leave scuffs and bulges when parking is tight. Open every door and confirm the handles and latches work. A short notebook of anything you find makes the booking call easier. The garage is only about 2 miles from Penkhull.
We test against the required MOT standards and explain the result plainly.

It can, depending on what the damage is. Sharp edges, insecure panels, cracked lenses and loose mirrors are the kind of thing that gets examined. If you spot any after a night on the street, mention it when booking.
