Why you need your MOT check and service check

The most important reason to have your car serviced, and to obtain a valid MOT certificate, is to stay on the right side of the law. Vehicle owners are legally obliged to keep a car’s paperwork up to date, and to seek a garage certificate every year.

Without a valid MOT, the vehicle could be taken from your possession and you could end up with a large fine too. Plus, your insurance will be invalidated. The same applies to any vehicle with an out of date service history. A lapsed safety certificate is a red flag for insurers, and for the police too.

Choose a trusted vehicle workshop in Daventry and Rugby

For the MOT certificate to be valid, it must be issued by an approved MOT centre. Townsends Of Rugby is authorised to carry out MOTs and service checks in our own vehicle workshop.

We hire the finest local mechanics so you know your car or van is in great hands. All engineers are qualified in vehicle care and maintenance, and have many years of experience. We trust them to take care of our own prized fleet of hire cars, so you know they will look after your own motor as well.

Courtesy cars available

When possible, we offer MOTs on a while-you-wait basis. Of course, during busy times this is not always possible. However, your MOT shouldn’t take more than a few hours. Even when repairs are needed, we aim to get your car fixed and back to you as quickly as possible. In the rare event that a car is out of action for a day or more, our hire car service can supply you with a courtesy car.

The same applies to annual service checks, which can sometimes take a little longer depending on the level of work needed and the availability of required parts. We will always advise in advance if the service will take more than a few hours, and wherever possible a courtesy car will always be offered.
