Brighton MOT Testing Centre And Vehicle Safety Checks
Since MOTs are a legal requirement, all Elite Garages (except Strood) have DVSA-accredited testers providing MOTs, at least 7 per day. Some customers also book a service at Elite Garages along with their MOT as it’s far more convenient and you can also book your MOT online.
Our Brighton MOT centre offers free retests when booked within 10 working days. To ensure our customers don’t forget their MOT due date, they can also join the Elite Members Club for free which entitles them to a text and email reminder.
Elite Garages in Brighton also perform many vehicle safety checks, especially tyres (visual inspection, tyre pressure) and fluid levels. As expected, these checks are generally more common around the summer holidays or when people are about to embark on a long journey. If the vehicle check shows up any issues, our technicians will explain them to the customer and recommend the next steps.

The type of service your car needs will largely depend on what was done before. Our technicians will help you decide by looking at your service book for pre seeing what service was done previously. From there, they can provide you with a more definitive answer. (See what’s included in a bronze or silver service here).
In simple terms, budget tyres are the cheapest and often don’t last as long or hold up as well as mid-range or premium tyres. Mid-range seems to be the happy medium as they provide better grip and longevity which is only superseded by the more expensive, premium tyres that offer even better performance, including Bridgestone.
All Elite Garages branches offer a wide range of budget, mid-range and premium tyres at various prices. While some tyres may cost anywhere from £46, others go up to £83 or more, for example. If you’d like to know the price of a specific tyre, please contact your nearest Elite Garages branch.

While front tyres can last for approximately 20,000 miles, the rear tyres may last a little longer. However, it’s important to note that when you replace your tyres will largely depend on driving style, frequency and the quality of tyres fitted.

Brakes deteriorate over time from general, day-to-day use but mileage, the environment and driving habits can impact the speed of wear and tear. Sometimes a brake issue is merely a foreign object lodged in your brakes or debris.
