The Newark MOT centre was commissioned by VOSA in January 2012 and has been operating since. MOT’s are charged at, (class IV) Cars and light commercials £32.
It is located at the junction between Brunel drive and Northern Road Newark Self Drive Hire & Auto centre, Unit 4 Brunel Drive, Newark. The decision behind the idea was to initially accommodate the MOT’s required by the ever expanding hire fleet, however as it already operates and offers an Auto Centre facility to the retail sector, it was a natural step to offer the MOT’s also to the retail and t
rade sector at an incredible low cost. The beauty behind the companies’ scheme though has to be their charity element. As Newark MOT centre is operating from within an existing partnership business premise, the overheads are kept low, meaning these savings are then passed on to the customer. The MOT centre concept is to support 2 charities, donating money from the MOT’s conducted directly to a local charity, Beaumond House Hospice and National charity, Help for Heroes. The MOT Centre believe this to be a win win situation, the customers benefit from incredible value for money on their MOT and the charity benefits from the support and monies raised by the MOT Centre. Partner and Authorised Examiner Designated Manager (AEDM) Darren Clay says; “The key to running a successful testing station is value for money, therefore a fair test for a fair price, as well as a consistent methodical approach to vehicle examination irrespective of which type of vehicle age or condition.”
Newark MOT centre feel this is a great opportunity for them to ‘give back’ and believe that this is an important part of running a successful local business. In addition, Newark Auto Centre can offer competitive priced repairs and services charging £29 per hour labour. (Class VII) Larger Commercials £42. Newark MOT Centre would like to take this opportunity to pass on their sincere thanks to all those that have helped and supported in launching this additional service.
