MOT – Raunds, Wellingborough

When it comes time to get your vehicle’s MOT sorted out, come to Gells of Raunds.

It’s important to get your vehicle’s MOT test performed by a trusted garage, but it can be hard to know which one to use. Save yourself the worry and let Gells of Raunds arrange your Class 2, Class 4 or Class 7 MOT test in Raunds, Wellingborough.

Which MOT Class is my vehicle?

Most vehicles will need a Class 4 MOT test, which we can carry out at our own workshop. This covers most private cars and vans up to 3t. Vans or motorhomes over 3t will need a Class 7 MOT test, and motorcycles will need a Class 2 test, both of which we arrange to be performed at a trusted partner garage with the appropriate bay. If you’re not sure which class MOT test your vehicle needs, give us a call or pop in to our workshop and we’ll be happy to advise.

What if my vehicle doesn’t pass?

We hope your vehicle passes with flying colours, but sometimes there are minor or advisory problems, or even major or dangerous issues. If they are major or dangerous, then you may not be able to drive your vehicle away until it’s repaired, as it’s not deemed safe for you or other road users. Once the repairs have been made and your vehicle has passed its MOT test, you’ll be able to drive away with peace of mind that your vehicle is running smoothly and that you’ll get from A to B and beyond.

Fortunately, major/dangerous advisories are rare. More often, vehicles will have minor advisories, which are things that should be looked at but don’t need fixing immediately. Gells of Raunds can also perform these repairs for you at a time to suit you.

Will my vehicle still need a service?

An MOT test is not a substitute for a service as it doesn’t cover all the same checks and doesn’t include things like top-ups and repairs. It’s often more economical and time-saving to book your vehicle in for a service at the same time. That way, we can alert you to any issues that might arise before the MOT test is performed, so you can get them sorted and save a possible re-test. It can also save you a visit to the garage later on.

Cannot recommend this garage enough- Very honest, very fair & great communication. They really give you the personal touch you want from a local business. On several occasions they have gone above & beyond for me. Rescuing me at short notice when I was 8 months pregnant & broken down on a busy road, Fitting me in last min for works I have needed urgently, they have priced for works which they later deducted as the work was no longer needed, always ensure I am up to date with any work that has needed to be carried out- providing a cost & getting my permission before commencing works. They have even collected my car before doing MOT as I was unable to get about with a newborn. I have had many trust issues in the past with garages & I honestly wouldn't go anywhere else now

Me and my partner have both used GELLS for MOT, tyres and service.. they’re great. Very nice to deal with, nothing too much trouble and really efficient. They.really helped once when we needed recovery and sorted it for us within minutes. Their prices are very fair. We wouldn’t hesitate recommending GELLS.
