MOT in Morningside and Corstorphine

As motorists, we often complain about the need to get an MOT done on our vehicles, but in reality, we should all appreciate that this really is a worthwhile obligation.

It means that every vehicle on the road should be in a safe, roadworthy condition and not polluting the environment around us with harmful emissions. Keith Elgin Motor Engineers is a Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) approved MOT testing station capable of carrying out MOT tests at both our Morningside and Corstorphine workshops.

Naturally, we are regulated, but we are also extremely customer-focused, and our aim is to offer sound advice as well as a high standard of service quality. We will be pleased to carry out a pre-MOT inspection and undertake any preparation work should your vehicle show any signs it might fail the test. And in cases where pre-inspections are not requested, we are able to provide a full range of competitively priced post-test repair services to ensure your vehicle passes its MOT re-test and gets you legally back on the road.

Both our teams by Keith Elgin Motor Engineers in Edinburgh are ready to offer advice and assistance next time you wish to book your annual MOT test with us.

I used them in April 2025 for welding to my 20 year old 2005 Corsa Twin-port for MOT. Excellent service and price.
Unfortunately the old car had a clutch failure which was going to cost in excess of £700 so it had to go to the Scrapyard in the sky. So I bought another car which is 2010 Corsa Sxi. lot of rumbling from front end, suspect drive shafts. Thinking maybe £300 plus. Took it in this morning. Turned out it was a loose wheel. They sorted and checked out the car. Minimal cost. Brilliant !!!!!
Update
I took my new Corsa in for MOT
Bad news.Estimated cost £698.
Good news. The amazing staff managed to trim off £98.
They know how to look after their customers.

A great local garage in the heart of Morningside. Ive been taking my car there 10 years or more for service, MOT, and repairs. Recently my car was undriveable due to broken suspension. They arranged for it to be recovered, then repaired with new suspension spring and two new front tyres.
