Mobile MOT service?
Discussion
Can't seem to find much but just wondering if anyone knows if these still exist?
Years ago (probs 5 or 6) my sister had a guy out of the yellow pages come, drive the car away and bring it back with a full MOT. He did a lot of the checks on the drive but had to take it away for some garage based stuff. Cost the same as a normal MOT.
Only reason I ask is we are trying to sell my partners Stilo. MOT runs out in 2 months and tax and the end of the month, shouldn't need anything but we are no longer insured on it. If there is such a service, they would be insured to take it where ever needed.
Anyone know of anything like this near Stoke?

The requirement for rolling road brake test equipment (amongst other things) nailed it completely.
A rolling road brake test is not mandated. My Sagaris will not fit on the rollers at my local MoT place due to its ground clearance, and we did a road brake test with a force gauge instead. Deluded said:

He would have just taken it to an MOT station and got it tested.Years ago (probs 5 or 6) my sister had a guy out of the yellow pages come, drive the car away and bring it back with a full MOT.

The least of your worries is the ground clearance.... reason it shouldnt be roller brake tested is the fact it has a lsd fittedE30M3SE said:
