MOT Stranraer Services is equipped with a modern VOSA (Vehicle and Operator Services Agency), Government approved testing station and can perform any repair work necessary to ensure that your vehicle passes the test.

Your car becomes eligible for its first MOT when it is 3 years old. Our service centre has been authorised by VOSA which is a government agency that supervises the MOT scheme.
You may not be aware, but it is possible to MOT your vehicle up to one calendar month prior to the current certificate expiry without losing any of the unexpired time. What this can mean is that if for any reason your vehicle should fail its MOT, then your existing MOT is still valid giving more time to effect repairs (although we must point out it is illegal to drive a dangerously faulty or unroadworthy car upon public roads)
If required, we will be pleased to inspect and repair your vehicle at our workshop and ensure that it passes all the required test criteria. Upon successful completion you will be provided with an MOT certificate indicating test results. MOT stands for Ministry of Transport test which indicates that a vehicle possesses the minimum acceptable road safety and environmental standards.
This test is required once the vehicle is 3 years old. It is an offence in the UK to drive a vehicle on the road without a valid MOT certificate. Doing so can also void your insurance and you may be liable to prosecution.
It is the owner’s responsibility to check their vehicle condition at regular intervals and keep it in a roadworthy condition.
