"Cheap MOT, shocking prices otherwise!"

A review of Car Care Motor Engineers Ltd by Disappointed written on Wednesday 12th of November 2008

19.99 for an MOT is excellent. Staff are friendly enough, from what I can gather. Waiting area is comfy enough. No problems there.

However...

£15 to adjust the angle/height of a single headlight, however, is absolutely deplorable. That's PER light, by the way. And that's not even replacing the bulb - just adjusting its angle/height. Unbelievable.

The mechanic involved was apologetic, saying that a lot of other MOT garages fix this for nothing, but that they're under orders here.

On the flip side, you could argue that other MOT garages don't charge just £20 for an MOT, but still - £5 would leave less of a sour taste..

I was faced with the non-choice of taking the car away, adjusting it, and then paying a further £10 for another MOT resit, or choking back the bile and paying them to do it there and then.

It took me longer to type in the PIN code on my debit card than it did for the adjustment to be made.

I've been using this garage for MOTs for years now. I've been stung with this headlight adjustment pricing before. It was £10 2 years ago. £15 is now clearly over the odds.
