Jacksons MOT Centre
30 million UK motorists take an MOT test every year, and British motorists are spending a huge chunk of their income on car repairs. According to a survey, drivers are either numb to their car issues or become accustomed to it. Motorists are expected to be more vigilant to confront the new tougher MOT Northampton test introduced by DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency).

Vehicles are graded as Minor, Major and Dangerous on the basis of the severity of an established car fault. Keeping 'prevention is better than cure' in mind, the immense repair expenditures can be slashed up to a great extent by avoiding this 'Ignore The Problem' Attitude and timely diagnosis as well as quick addressal of car faults by bringing your vehicle to a certified MOT Test Centre like Jackson's MOT Centre.

The MOT Test is a legal requirement for all cars and vehicles over 3 years old. The purpose of the test is to ensure your vehicle meets the minimum safety requirements set by VOSA. Without a valid MOT certificate your insurance policy and road tax become invalidated and therefore you may face not only a 30 fixed penalty notice for not having a valid MOT certificate, but also 6 Penalty points on your license.
While driving, the vehicle pulls more and more to the left or to the right, it bursts or squeaks in turns, unclean on steering movements, or the steering wheel is tilted when the car is not driving. Every car driver has experienced at least one of these "symptoms" before: Every single one of these symptoms indicates that the axle geometry of the vehicle is no longer correct.
We have been repairing and clutch replacement for the past 15 years and during this time we have fitted many clutch kits. We have the advantage of being able to source high quality replacement clutch kits normally for same day delivery. With modern day vehicles using DMF (Dual Mass Flywheels) we have the cutting edge in technology to detect any faults early to avoid extensive costs in replacement parts.
A defective exhaust can lead to many unpleasant consequences: besides risking pollution of your environment with noise and exhaust emissions, you also risk an accident on the road. If, for example, the muffler has been riddled, it could fall off during the journey and thus endanger other road users.
From MOT and inspection over diagnostics and service to exhaust, shock absorbers and brakes. From oil change, tyres and winter check ups to air conditioning and ventilation - Jacksons MOT Centre in Northampton can perform cheap vehicle servicing specific to your vehicle. This way, you don't need to look around as we are here at your disposal - from damage prevention to the search for errors - and of course, to damage elimination.

Worst garage ever that almost double charged me for a fault they couldn't fix.

Always had good experiences with Jackson until last week. Car went in to investigate an issue with sticking rear brake and do an oil and filter change whilst there. Shortly afterwards I had a call to say that it was on the ramp and the mechanic agrees the brake is sticking, but they weren't going to investigate further because i might not use them to fix the problem. I was slightly confused at the logic at this point. But it was suggested that the car needs new disks and pads all round and a new rear calliper. The front disks and pads are about 50% worn and the rear disks maybe 20% worn pads about

Cant thank these guys enough for today. I brought a car recently that turned out to be a complete lemon. These guys did a full health check on the car and advised me the best steps to get my money back - which worked! Its nice to be able to trust a garage, thanks Jacksons.

I have used Jacksons for many years. They are very fair, when checking the MOT. So pleased to know, that I have a safe car again. Lovely team in the Office and Workshop, thank you so much ❤

Excellent service. Took my car in today after taking it to a large chain of mot garages who couldn't identify the problem. Within 15 mins he'd not only identified the problem but fixed it too! Fitted new tyres too (which I knew needed doing). No upselling, just fixed what I needed quickly and at a great price.
