The MOT itself is price-capped by the DVSA. Drova's job is to make sure you pass first time — with a proper pre-MOT check on your driveway.
MOT failures cost time, not just money — most failures are bulbs, wipers or tyres that Drova can flag (and often fix) before you book the test.
The MOT price is capped by the DVSA at £54.85 for a class-4 car or £29.65 for a motorbike. Test centres can charge less but never more. Drova doesn't carry out the MOT test itself — we do the mobile pre-MOT check that gets the car ready to pass.
Yes if the car is older than 6 years or hasn't been serviced recently. Most MOT failures are small (bulbs, wipers, number-plate lights) and cheap to fix beforehand — but cost a retest fee if found at the test centre.
No — only a DVSA-authorised MOT test centre can issue an MOT certificate. Drova prepares the car and can recommend a trusted local test centre.
