Kit-car friendly MOT station

[krunschwitz]

Hi everybody.
Do you guys know some kit-car friendly MOT station in West London(nearby Ealing)? I`ve got Stuart Taylor Locoblade and my MOT is running out very soon.
Thx for any tips and suggestions.

I'm sure all MOT stations will say hello and smile at your car on your arrival...

Or did you mean bent?

I'm sure he means one with a shallow enough brake pit to allow his car in AND back out again.

I think I know what he means! My favourite place (in Suffolk) does MOTs to the book (i.e. not 'bent') but is very happy to deal with my kit car, and spends most of the session talking about it!

He particularly likes the ease with which he can check the front suspension - he raises the car a couple of feet, then reaches down over the wheel to do his tests - no bending under a grubby car wing.

I know what he means. There are a number of MOT stations that wouldn't know what a kit car was and would need to refer to the 'book' all the time. Finding a kit friendly tester is a good idea maybe a an opportunity for a 'sticky' list.

Don't live in the OP area so cant help him but I can recommend a kit/modified car friendly tester down here in Somerset.

We are a Kit Car freindly MOT centre and based in Peckham south london, we have a pit so it doesn't matter how low your car is, As i own one i know my way around them

If anyone is interested let me know, could probably sort some kind of discount.

I take my Marlin Sportster to this place.
Iver MOT Centre
Tel: [phone]| Haven Dale, Langley Park Rd, Iver, Buckinghamshire SL0 0JQ
Not too far from Ealing.
He doesn't bat an eyelid and just tests it like any other car.
Nice guy, no fuss and only £40.
