I am always wary of anything offered for free. I have used a independent local garage for 30 years they don't rip me off only do what is required and are very helpfully. Yes they charge the full MOT price but if it fails it's an honest fail. Additionaly they need to make a profit which includes the MOT. Reduced MOTs are a way generate repairs that are often not needed and overpriced if we all drift off to the likes of Halfords small independant trust worthy garages will disappear and we will all pay a much higher price to keep our cars on the road.
