We are a well established MOT testing centre based in Buckingham. Our 2 testing bays are open 6 days a week. We offer class 4, 5 and 7 testing and a Free 10 day retest* (see MOT testing page), (not including weekends, so more like 2 weeks)
Eurolane offers car servicing and uses parts that match the quality of the manufacturer’s original equipment. We’ll stamp your service book too (also on our online system), to ensure your vehicle’s service history is maintained.
Book your MOT and Service together.
Arrange for an interim or full service at the same time as your MOT and you will save even more time and money.
During the MOT test the nominated tester, a person authorised by the government body called VOSA (Vehicle and Operator Services Agency) will conduct an inspection and a comprehensive series of checks around the vehicle, including the interior, exterior, under the bonnet and under the vehicle. The result of each check is recorded- if the vehicle passes a VT20 ‘pass’ certificate is issued. If the vehicle fails to meet the required standard a VT30 ‘failure’ document is issued. Items that are not quite a failure, but worthy of a mention to you so you can keep an eye on them are drawn to your attention as ‘advisory’ items.
It is your responsibility to ensure your vehicle is examined every 12 months. Without a current MOT certificate, you will be unable to drive your vehicle lawfully or renew your road fund license. Recent computerisation of the MOT testing system by VOSA means police and mobile camera units can now check remotely to see if your vehicle has a current MOT.
Once you become a customer we will also send you free MOT reminders via text message and email if requested.
The penalty for not having an up to date MOT certificate could be a fine. Also if the vehicle is involved in an accident you may be asked to produce your MOT certificate. An insurance claim could be affected by the absence of your MOT, especially in the case of injury.
Having your car MOT tested could not be easier, simply call into our testing centre or call 01280 822 822 to book a date and time.
