Common questions

How much does an MOT cost at The Car Guys?
Our MOT is priced from £54.85 — the DVSA maximum — so you will never pay more than the national cap. Book online to confirm availability at our Bromsgrove garage.
How long does an MOT take?
A standard Class 4 MOT takes around 45 to 60 minutes. If advisories or repairs are needed, we explain everything clearly before any additional work is agreed.
What happens if my car fails its MOT?
We show you exactly what failed and give you a clear repair quote. We can often carry out repairs the same day and arrange a prompt retest to get you back on the road.
Where can I find an MOT near me in Bromsgrove?
We are on Kidderminster Road in Bromsgrove, easy to reach from Redditch, Kidderminster, Droitwich, Catshill, and the wider Worcestershire area. Book online and we will confirm your slot the same day.
Can I drive on an MOT advisory?
Yes. An advisory is not a failure — your car has passed its MOT and is legal to drive. However, advisories flag items that may deteriorate and need attention soon. We explain each one clearly so you can decide whether to address it now or monitor it.
What is the difference between an MOT pass, fail, and advisory?
A pass means your car meets current DVSA safety standards and is road-legal for another year. A fail means it does not and cannot legally be driven until repaired and retested — we can often carry this out the same day. An advisory flags items that are not yet at the failure threshold but should be watched — we explain each one in plain language.
