I thought there was a fixed price on MOT prices Obviously not, Will find out in july how much i will have to pay, Which brings the question do it as a 1.2 or as a 1.6 if the engine is finished by then, Legal or not?

Paid about £54 at national tyres last time.

Wouldnt normally use them but they're on the same street as my work so it was easiest option.

Its junction 32 to 31 that can get a little snarled up but your way to early for that, and juntcion 20 iirc rochdale but you will know that. WOnt have any issues there. Is that were you going 3 lakes?

As for MOT i believe that if its VOSA (i think its VOSA) approved then they charge £52.50 minimum, if not approved then its whatever they want - both do the same thing

Can't remember how much the guy charges, but I take mine to Gilnow Road (behind Bolton School off Chorley New Road)... he doesn't do any repair work, so not interested in failing for silly things... free re-tests too. He does a lot of the taxi's round Bolton so he's always busy, but I won't go anywhere else now I found him.

are you coming to have a look at cars at "Trade cars" by any chance? can't see any other point going there unless you dont have local mcdonalds

three lakes is about 5 min drive through town.

I spotted this on Auto Trader offering half price MOTs at Nationwide Autocentres for £27.
