Wheels & Tyres

Our in-house team uses cutting-edge tools to minutely check the conditions of car wheels and tyres. If your vehicle’s tyres have major cuts, bulges or other significant damages or if the tyre tread is worn-down below 1.6 mm, we recommend a tyre check, and if necessary, a replacement service before the test.

Brakes

Vehicle Body

Due to excessive corrosion or some abrupt damages, your car’s body may develop some sharp edges that can result in injuries. While conducting the MOT test our experts point out these damages and propose cost-effective solutions.

Suspension System

A detailed inspection of your car’s steering and suspension column is included in our MOT checklist. During inspection, we ensure the different bearings, bolts, clamps and joints are free from damage.
