If you live in Brighton and your MOT is due, you’ve got a few solid choices—but how do you know which MOT centre offers the best value, service, and convenience?
In this quick guide, I’ll share how to book an MOT in Brighton, what to expect, and a personal recommendation based on my own experience.
The MOT (Ministry of Transport test) is a legal requirement for vehicles over 3 years old in the UK. It ensures your car is roadworthy and meets environmental standards. Driving without a valid MOT can lead to fines, penalty points, and invalid insurance.
There are a few easy ways to book your MOT:
I recently booked my car in at Brighton MOT Centre, and I can honestly say I was impressed.
The price was fair, the staff were helpful and professional, and they let customers wait on-site while the MOT is carried out, I popped to a local coffee shop instead. What really stood out was their communication—they called me promptly with updates and even carried out a same-day repair that could’ve easily delayed things elsewhere.
It’s located on Beaconsfield Rd, Brighton and Hove, Brighton BN1 4QJ and offers:
Whether you’re looking for a no-fuss MOT or a full service, they’re a garage I personally trust.
If you’re comparing prices, try searching for:
But keep in mind—a cheap MOT isn’t always the best MOT. A garage that charges £10 less but fails you over minor issues (and over-quotes the fix) can end up costing you more.
Let’s be honest—it’s easy to forget your MOT date, especially with busy schedules or multiple vehicles in the household.
That’s why I built AutoChain—to make things simpler for drivers.
With AutoChain, you’ll get:
And yes, it’s totally free for drivers.
If your MOT is due in Brighton, don’t leave it to the last minute. Booking early gives you more flexibility, peace of mind, and in some cases—like mine—a same-day fix with no hassle.
I’d definitely recommend Brighton MOT Centre based on my personal experience, but whether you go there or elsewhere, be sure to stay on top of your MOT date.
