Joe managed to book my car in straight away and carried out a really thorough inspection before purchase. He even sent me a detailed video of the underside (something I’d never normally get to see), talking me through everything clearly and in a way I could understand. He also gave it an extensive test drive and ran full diagnostics to check for any hidden issues. The communication was outstanding, the service above and beyond, and the pricing very fair. An honest, professional garage I’d recommend to absolutely everyone!Posted on Tomos Gwyn2025-08-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I always recommend him to all my friends and family 10/10Posted on Michael Jones2025-08-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently used the garage for a clutch replacement. Joe is a courteous, friendly and very knowledgeable mechanic. He explained the problem to me thoroughly, setting-out details of the work to be done, together with a cost estimate (which was a really accurate prediction). The work was carried quickly and efficiently. A major, positive service provided in the Cardiff area is that a customer’s car is picked up from their home and returned when work on the car is completed. What a bonus that is!! Thank you, Joe, for a very a very hassle-free experience.Posted on Joe Cameron2025-07-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe's a top bloke!

A MOT is a legal requirement under UK law. It ensures your car is safe enough to be on the road and is up to the expected requirements. When you book an MOT with Lawfix Automotive Cardiff, we check your vehicle against the following criteria:
Brakes – Brakes are tested for multiple things, including stopping distance, balance, and performance.
Tyres & Wheels – We check for tread depth, overall condition and air inflation.
Lights & Indicators – Every bulb on the vehicle is checked to ensure it operates to the required standards.
Steering & Suspension – We check for various things here, including wear, leaks and overall control.
Windscreen, Wipers & Washers – A clear view of the road must be secured for this test to be passed.
Exhaust & Emissions – This test is to ensure your vehicle is in line with environmental regulations.
Seatbelts & Seats – Ensure that seatbelts and seats perform their safety functions as outlined by UK law.
Bodywork & Doors – Check for things like sharp edges, corrosion and any signs of loose panels, which could cause an issue when driving.
Mirrors & Visibility -Ensuring complete visibility is maintained while driving in the vehicle.
Fuel System -We check for overall security and ensure there is no compromising leakage.
Number Plates & VIN – Must be legible and comply with legal standards.
Horn & Electrical Systems – Checked for overall safety and reliability.
By checking all of these details across your vehicle, our Cardiff MOT garage ensures that your vehicle is fully compliant with legal standards and maximises safety for yourself and others while you’re out driving on UK roads.

At Lawfix Automotive, we offer one of the cheapest MOT services in Cardiff. If your vehicle fails for any reason, additional fees will be incurred to address the fault. We will confirm with you before undertaking further work.
We will conduct all MOTs on the same day. It usually takes us around 1-2 hours to conduct the MOT. You will get your vehicle back the same day if it passes.

If your MOT fails, we are legally required to hold your vehicle until it passes. We will need to address the faults before you can get your car back on the road.
Unfortunately not. Unlike a service, an annual MOT is a legal requirement. Failure to secure a valid MOT can result in fines and penalties if detected.
Yes, we do. We offer a complementary collection and drop-off service at no extra charge to you.
100%. Our mechanics are fully DVSA-approved testers with decades of experience conducting MOTs.
A MOT is a legal requirement used to ensure your car is safe for driving on the road. A service is not a legal requirement and is conducted to maximise the health and longevity of your vehicle.
Absolutely not. We only use high-quality and reliable parts that meet the manufacturer’s standards.
The MOT service price itself is fixed. If further work is required to pass the MOT, prices will vary depending on the specific job that needs to be undertaken.
