It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number 1ALZ49 (the same premises is also listed under 1ALZ50 and 1ALZ51 and 1ALZ52), and is authorised for 3 of the six MOT test classes: 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).
