Car and Light Commercial Vehicle MOTs in Goring | DVSA Requirements for MOT Testing

Steve’s Autos Lancing Ltd’s workshop, located on Ingleside Road, is an approved DVSA testing centre and the place for motorists in nearby Goring and West Sussex to come for major, full or interim car servicing, or for an annual MOT test. If you ever need us to collect a car from your home or workplace, we have a breakdown recovery truck. We also provide electric car servicing and electric car repairs.

With our passion for engine management and vehicle diagnostics, more drivers than ever make the short trip to our car repair and MOT garage to use our auto electricians, mechanics and technicians.

MOT Testing Requirements

To perform Class IV car and light commercial vehicle MOTs, a workshop must meet requirements set by the DVSA.

It must also have:

  • bullet icon

    Suitable Premises

  • bullet icon

    Authorised Examiners

  • bullet icon

    Approved Equipment

An authorised examiner is a person, a partnership or even a company, much like our own servicing and MOT garage.

It is the duty of the authorised examiner to make sure:

  • bullet icon

    Every MOT test follows the required inspection process

  • bullet icon

    Facilities stay clean and suitably maintained

  • bullet icon

    Vehicle diagnostics performed on approved equipment

  • bullet icon

    Documents stored and made accessible electronically

  • bullet icon

    All inspectors undergo correct training and assessment

  • bullet icon

    Access to DVSA staff granted for spot checks and audits

Whether you need a car or a light commercial vehicle MOT test, we’re there to help. If you would like to increase your chances of passing the test, you can book pre-inspections with our technicians and auto electricians earlier in the day.

One-Stop Shop

Customers from Goring who started out using us for breakdown recovery have gone on to visit us for servicing and repairs, engine management, body welding, tests, and more.

Before conducting annual car and light commercial vehicle MOTs, a business must have dedicated inspection managers and testers qualified to work on specific classes. The inspection manager must have completed the previous two-day approved DVSA course or the current Level 3 Award in MOT Test Centre Management.

Book in for servicing with our technicians and auto electricians at the same time as using our MOT garage for an annual test, and motorists qualify for a discount. If you have used us for breakdown recovery, why not leave your car with us so we can deal with the repair work too? We also provide electric car servicing and electric car repairs.

Professional Workshop

Our workshop can utilise vehicle diagnostics to reset your dashboard light after a service, test emissions, and provide other reports during the MOT test. Book the inspection up to 28 days before the current certificate expires, and if your car passes, we’ll issue a new certificate that runs concurrently with the old one for up to 13 months.

MOT garages keep a record of your test history on a central database and notify you of the next due date.

Car servicing, vehicle diagnostics, breakdown recovery and more. We offer the services needed to get Goring motorists back on the road and keep them there at a fair, competitive price. We guarantee our parts and the workmanship of our mechanics, technicians, and auto electricians for 12,000 miles or up to 12 months, whichever comes first.

Our car and light commercial vehicle MOT garage in Lancing has a comfortable waiting and viewing area available to customers.
