Dear Customers Davlyn Fleet Maintenance is Registered in Wales at 2 Masefield Way, CF37 5HE. We have a site at LE7 9DQ where we can do major jobs that need a ramp. At Davlyn we work on passenger-carrying vehicles, cars, light commercial vehicles, and heavy goods vehicles including light and heavy plant machinery. We have experience dating back to 1991. We operate this business based on THREE very paramount values to us and these are: 1. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services 2. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services 3. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services This is therefore evident that even though we are a business, we do not believe that we are doing what we do ENTIRELY for money. We value our customers' satisfaction. They are the basis of our growth. Where we have to lose to meet our customers at their reasonable satisfaction point, we would have to do that. We are not the cheapest garage but we also believe in that customers get what they pay for. There are many garages out there that may regard themselves as cheaper than us but we do not prioritize saving our customers money, our priority is to satisfy our customers by doing the job, doing it right safeguarding them from the unnecessary resultant costs of rectifying rushed jobs done incompetently. We do not claim that jobs will never go wrong but the difference between us and other competitors is that we PHYSICALLY take full responsibility when things go wrong from our end. Many service providers take responsibility HERE but not on the ground. We believe that is why customers should come to us for their work.

MOT FAQs

How early can I book an MOT?

An MOT lasts for a year. The date it runs out is shown on your most recent MOT pass certificate. You can book an MOT near you up to one month (minus a day) before the due date and still keep the same renewal date.

For example: if your MOT runs out on 16 September, the earliest you can MOT your car and keep the same renewal date next year is 17 August. You can book an MOT earlier than this. But if you do, the renewal date will change to one year (minus a day) from the date your vehicle passed this MOT.

To find out when your MOT is and how early you can book it, use the GOV.UK tool.

When do I need to book an MOT?

A car needs an MOT every year once it’s three years old (four years in Northern Ireland). Then it needs to be retested every year on the anniversary of its last MOT. Cars under three years old don’t need an MOT.

Once you’ve passed, you’ll get an MOT test certificate showing the date of the test and the expiry date. You can get your car retested up to a month (minus a day) before it expires and keep the original renewal date.

If your MOT is due, get a quote from an RAC Approved Garage near you and book your MOT online today.

What happens if I fail my MOT?

If your car fails its MOT:

You’ll get a Refusal of MOT Certificate (VT30). You can only drive away if your current MOT certificate is still valid and no ‘dangerous’ faults were listed in the MOT. You will need to have your car repaired and retested.

Your Refusal of MOT Certificate will explain why your car failed its MOT test and explain what needs to be fixed for it to pass. Ask your local garage whether you need a full or partial MOT retest, as how much you pay will depend on the state of your vehicle.

If you get your car tested, repaired and retested at the same test centre within 10 working days, you usually won’t have to pay an MOT retest fee. Sometimes there will be a partial retest fee to pay. Just ask your garage for more information.

If you drive a car that’s failed its MOT because of a ‘dangerous’ fault, you can be fined up to £2,500. You can also be banned from driving and get three points on your licence.

To avoid failing your MOT test, maintain the condition of your car in between MOTs by booking a car service.
