3 Cross MOT Centre is an MOT test station at Unit 1 Lower Common Lane, Three Legged Cross, Wimborne, BH21 6RX, in Dorset (South West). It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number V105988, and is authorised for 5 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2), cars, light vans and motor caravans up to 3,000kg (Class 4), private passenger vehicles with 13 or more seats (Class 5) and goods vehicles between 3,000 and 3,500kg (Class 7).

Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 34 of the 191 stations listed in Dorset hold Class 1 or 2, and 22 of the 187 stations within 10 miles of this one do. For Class 7 goods vehicles (3,000 to 3,500kg, the long-wheelbase Transit and Sprinter bracket) it is one of 57 authorised stations in the district and one of 43 within 10 miles. It is one of 39 stations in Dorset authorised for Class 5 private passenger vehicles with 13 or more seats, a class most garages cannot test; 26 stations within 10 miles hold it. It also tests Class 4 cars and light vans, the class 177 of the district's 191 stations share.

The nearest listed alternative is Dorset Jaguar Centre Ltd, 0.4 miles away (Class 4). 37 other stations sit within 5 miles and 187 within 10 miles, which makes this a dense area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 0.7 miles.
