MOT Testing Centre & Test Station Prestige Car & Van Service

Martone Motors is a Ministry of Transport approved MOT Testing Station, or Test Centre. Situated at the bottom of Market Street, in Congleton we are ideally placed for customers to leave their car with us for the MOT test while they do their shopping. Alternatively, you may use our waiting area while our MOT staff carry out the test while you wait.

The MOT Test

MOT's are undertaken at garages authorised by the Vehicle Inspectorate to carry out the tests. They are easily identifiable by the blue, 3 triangle MOT Sign. For your convenience, we list below some of the equipment on the car or vehicle to be tested. You may wish to check some of these to save yourself time and inconvenience.

Lighting Equipment

Includes brake lights or stop lamps, main and dipped headlights, tail light and number plate lights. Also includes reflectors and direction indicators, both front and rear.

Braking System

The breaking system is checked both front and rear, looking for worn break pads, shoes, discs etc. and also includes the handbrake.

Steering System

Steering system including power steering, suspension front and rear, drive shafts and shock absorbers are checked.

Tyres and Wheels

Tyres are checked for depth of tread, and wheels are also checked.

These are just the main items, there are many others such as check for worn seatbelts, condition of wiper blades, windscreen washers, horn, exhaust system, general body condition emissions, and much more.

If your car or van passes the MOT test, it is a good inication that the vehicle is roadworthy, but remember:

the MOT test certificate relates only to the condition of the testable items at the time of the test and should not be regarded as evidence of their condition at any other time; nor should it be accepted as evidence of the general mechanical condition of the vehicle.

If you have any doubts, our trained technicians are on hand to help.
