Pre-MOT Check in Scarborough

Nobody likes a failure — the time off the road, the retest and the worry. A pre-MOT check at Roscoe Street Garage in Scarborough gives you a clear picture beforehand, so there are fewer surprises on the day.

What we look at

We check over the areas behind most failures:

• Lights, indicators and bulbs
• Tyres — tread depth, cuts and bulges
• Brakes and handbrake
• Suspension and steering
• Wipers, washers and the windscreen
• Exhaust leaks and warning lights
• Visible corrosion on structural areas

Anything we find, we explain and quote for. You decide what you want doing.

Easy fixes that cause failures

A surprising number of MOT failures are for simple things — a blown bulb, worn wiper blades, an empty washer bottle or a warning light on the dash. We supply and fit wiper blades and bulbs and can diagnose warning lights before the test.

Test arranged for you

We don't carry out the MOT ourselves, but we can book it for you at an approved centre. If anything fails, we handle the repairs and the retest through our MOT repair service — one point of contact from start to finish.

Combine it with a service

If a service is due around the same time, it often makes sense to do both together. Ask about car servicing when you book.
