Yes, it is most often cheaper to have an MOT and service at the same time as garages offer both at a reduced rate. You can book your vehicle in for either an MOT or a service with many MOT garages in  EDINBURGH , and simply request a servicing at the same time with Approved Garages. 

You can drive your car home from a failed MOT as long as the fail isn’t a ‘dangerous fail’, and your car is still within its current MOT certificate. If your car has failed due to a dangerous fault, then you will have to have the dangerous fault fixed at the garage, and then have the corresponding part of the MOT conducted again to ensure that your car is roadworthy. 

It is illegal to drive your car without an MOT. There is no grace period for a lapsed or invalid MOT currently in the UK. The only time that you may drive your vehicle without a valid MOT certificate is to the MOT garage to have an MOT conducted. This is only legal if no dangerous faults were found during your previous MOT. 

You may also drive your car for the first 3 years after its initial registration date without an MOT (or 4 years in Northern Ireland). This is because new cars rarely need to have MOTs conducted to ensure their roadworthiness.

You only need to bring your car to an MOT, as the MOT test centre can review your car’s history on the DVSA database. You’ll also need to ensure you have a valid method of payment for your MOT test. 

An MOT typically takes anything between 30 minutes and 1 hour, although this could take longer if your car fails initially and needs to be repaired. If there are multiple or dangerous faults with your car, these repairs could take a longer amount of time.
