MoT'd our car and Dispatch van in the past, recommended by garage who does our servicing (but doesn't do MoTs), friendly and seem fair, free retest within 10 days.

Always had good service
Ramp for heavier vehicles available
 
MOT and more (if required)

I bought my MH from Taplow ( SMC = Southern Motorhomes | Practical Motorhomes Dealer of the Year 2010 )
First year I asked them to MOT and service..
No problems but they are not an MOT testing Station.
They used Moorside Garage, Maidenhead
So next year I went to them ( Moorside Garage ) direct for MOT and no service (low Mileage)
And again 1 year later MOT then service.
Everything Fine

Last year My MH was in Storage at Taplow (SMC)
They had changed their allegiance to Boxer Motor company Maidenhead.
In one way this was better for me as my base vehicle is a Renault Master and Boxer specialise in Renaults

You will not get fleeced at these County Council MOT Test Sites...

You can be assured that the list of County Council MOT Test Sites will contain Test Centres where you will have a full & fair MOT without the risk of the usual "..you'll need one of these Gov..and one of those... and it's going to cost £xxxxx." comments or similar as the County Council Sites are not allowed to 'Service' your vehicle, hence they arte totally impartial and have nothing to gain by 'inventing' faults that will cost you loads.

Crewe impartial MoT test

Good morning Each,

The council test facility opposite the Bentley factory in Pyms Lane, Crewe, are good and impartial, with hoists and building to accommodate very large vehicles.

I have taken my vehicles there for the last fifteen years, and know that when they give me a pass certificate that there is nothing doubtful about the vehicle.

They can be contacted at:-

Cheshire Direct Services,
Pyms Lane,
Crewe
Cheshire
01270 686853

NOTE:- The telephone number I give gets you through to the man who books the work into the workshop.
The number given in a preceding post gets you through to a council clerk somewhere, with attendant delays.

Regards,
Martlet.
 
I found this list online. A previous poster mentioned how good they are so I thought this list may prove useful.

For anyone down my way I use these guys for my camper and cars, got him to check mine when I first got it and found out he used to own one similar to mine

I would like to add the garage I trust. For years they have serviced my company car and then a while back increased their workshop and installed lifts which can take big vans. An honest family run business and they do offer a local (free) collect and drop off service:

Crown Garage
Cheadle Road
Leekbrook

Tockwith mot centre near wetherby

A previous poster recommended this business. As a first time mh owner at first test since importing I was a little concerned at finding someone as good as where my cars motorbikes are tested.
I can say they are excellent
