About car servicing · Locufy UK price guide

Expect £120–£450 for a car service in the UK, with £220 a fair middle figure. An interim service on a small petrol hatchback is the cheapest; a full or major service on a diesel, SUV or premium model, especially at a main dealer or in London, is the dearest.

Which vehicles get tested at the MOT station on 2 Mayer Way in Dunstable?

Cars, light vans and goods vehicles up to 3,000kg, taxis, motor caravans, quads and passenger vehicles with up to 12 seats are tested at this class 4 site.

Are vans and motorcycles tested at this Dunstable station, LU5 5BF?

Vans, yes: light vans up to 3,000kg fall within this station's class 4 range. Motorcycles, no, because this class 4 site does not test class 1 or class 2 bikes.

Can I reserve a test slot at 2 Mayer Way through the internet?

Phone bookings only: this independent site does not take internet reservations, so a time is fixed by calling the station's listed number.

What nearby stations could take my car if the Mayer Way site has no free slots?

AUTOCRAFT in Houghton Regis sits 0.3 km away, with Halfords Autocentre in Dunstable and Georgina Service Station Ltd in Houghton Regis each 0.6 km off.

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment lead at 10.6% of class 4 first tests across LU area stations, followed by suspension and tyres at 6.0% each. In 2024, 74.3% of those first tests passed, and these are area-wide figures, not results for 2 Mayer Way alone.
