MOT Testing, Preparation & Repairs
Class 4 MOT testing, preparation, repairs and retests — with clear advice every step of the way.
An MOT is a yearly check that your car meets the minimum road safety and environmental standards set by the DVSA. At KNR Autos we can help you stay on top of it — from preparing your vehicle ahead of the test, to carrying out any repairs that are needed and getting you booked in for a retest.
We believe in being straight with you. If something needs attention we will explain what it is and why it matters before any work is carried out, so there are no surprises and you can make an informed decision about your vehicle.

MOT FAQs
Do you offer MOT preparation?
Yes. We can give your vehicle a pre-MOT check to look over the common failure points — brakes, tyres, lights, steering and suspension — so anything likely to cause a problem can be spotted and put right before your test.
Can you help if my car fails its MOT?
Absolutely. If your car has failed — whether here or at another garage — we can look at the reasons for the failure, explain what is involved and carry out the repairs needed to get it through, then arrange a retest.
Do you check brakes, tyres and suspension?
Yes. Brakes, tyres, steering and suspension are among the most common MOT advisory and failure areas, so they are a key part of both our MOT testing and MOT preparation work.
