Horley MOT offers free retests on vehicles which failed their MOT at our premises and where the repair work is carried out by us
MOT re-test rules are pretty complicated and extremely dull. Let's set the stage to help you in regards to when you are able and will not receive a FREE re-test.
To begin, the first regulation tends to be that when a the vehicle has failed its MOT test, the compulsory amount of time for all the essential steps to be undertaken and any resulting re-test is precisely 10 working days after the first day of test. This is true as long as your vehicle has been remedied and successively scheduled in to acquire a re-test before the end of 10 working days. If all of the above is true, subsequently the computerised MOT device that all MOTing garages use is able to, at this point, make it possible for us to register the family car and perform the re-test.
So, it therefore follows that the second procedure is the fact that within the MOT re-examination it's often times a fact that a handful of items can be re-tested swiftly yet in contrast many items demand a good deal more measured testing.
For illustration;
- If for example the family car is rejected on 1 tyre; then a replacement tyre is simple to see and then a "fast track" MOT test can be performed, taking just a little while for the MOT tester to undertake and thus shouldn't attract a re-test fee.
- Or an alternate illustration: Let's say your vehicle or light commercial vehicle failed the MOT check on headlamp aims, emissions, and brake system; in cases like this your family car really needs to be enrolled with your nearest Horley VOSA MOT centre to get a part re-test and driven in to the MOT test bay, and then the emissions check must be performed, a lighter comprehensive all around check out completed together with a total braking mechanism analysis performed. This work naturally will take added amounts of the MOT testers time, and for these reasons this certainly will normally attract a re-test charge.
Horley MOT only offers free MOT retests for any vehicle which failed its MOT providing the work is carried out by us.
If you decide to take your vehicle away to be repaired elsewhere, Horley MOT will charge you a partial test fee which is half of the full price of an MOT (half of £54.85).
