It really is a good deal, as we couldn’t find MOTs being flogged for free elsewhere.
The only other cheap MOT test we could spot was at Kwik Fit, where you can get one done from £27.

It comes as drivers now face a hefty fine if they don’t renew their MOT a six month extension to get a check done ended last month.
Drivers whose MOT ran out last year were given an extra six months to get their car tested because of the Covid crisis.
But this ended on February 1, which means everyone who has an expired MOT must now get one or face a £1,000 fine.
You can get an MOT up to a month, minus a day, before it expires – and still keep the same renewal date.
If you own a brand new car then you don’t have to get an MOT until the third anniversary of its registration.
After that, you have to get your vehicle tested every 12 months.
