I have just had my Kit car Mot'd for the second year running at Rougham Motors (01359 271238), on the industrial estate beside the airfield. Paul and Kevin always seem to be interested in looking at something out of the ordinary, instead of the normal eurobox! I think they charged me £48.00.

Can I NOT recommend Ian Button Motors in Fordham near Soham who despite saying lovely things about my Cobra, charged me £79.12 for an MOT and insisted it had to be paid cash. The Cobra failed the MOT after they were sure it would pass, I would have taken it away to fix any faults they pointed out otherwise, then weren't happy to give me any help after the Cobra broke at Marham. I had popped round to ask their advice before possibly giving them quite a lot of money to fix it! Sod that, I'll do it myself.
So I paid £79.12 for absolutely nothing. And they didn't exactly drive the Cobra sensibly on its way to the MOT either. I wasn't too impressed. The only thing they were good at is squeezing me in at short notice on a Friday.

I know it's out of your area but, PH member http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/profile.asp?mem... runs an excellent MOT and service garage near me called Abery Motors in Arlesey
Had my 3 1/2ton Renault Master mot'd this morning, (which is a Class 7 btw)
All for £50

Next time you need it doing, I can recommend Townsend Garage in Soham. They fitted my Skoda in the day after I phoned, and looked after the Caterham well too. Only snag they had was that they struggled a bit with the rollcage and tiny pedal box, but I guess your Cobra should be rather better... They look after my Dad's Morgan too.So I paid £79.12 for absolutely nothing. And they didn't exactly drive the Cobra sensibly on its way to the MOT either. I wasn't too impressed.
