MOT Centre

MOT Centre is an MOT test station at Toynbee, Tattershall Bridge Road, Tattershall Bridge, Tattershall, LN4 4JH, in North Kesteven, Lincolnshire (East Midlands). It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number S000318, and is authorised for 6 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2), three-wheelers up to 450kg (Class 3), 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: 12 of the 63 stations listed in North Kesteven hold Class 1 or 2, and 8 of the 38 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 23 authorised stations in the district and one of 11 within 10 miles. It is one of 15 stations in North Kesteven authorised for Class 5 private passenger vehicles with 13 or more seats, a class most garages cannot test; 8 stations within 10 miles hold it. Three-wheeler (Class 3) testing is rarer still, with 5 stations in the district. It also tests Class 4 cars and light vans, the class 61 of the district's 63 stations share.

The nearest listed alternative is Malcolm Padley and Sons in Lincoln, 0.8 miles away (Class 4). 8 other stations sit within 5 miles and 38 within 10 miles, which makes this a moderately served area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 2.5 miles.
