Reply To: Garage owners left to weigh up pros and cons of staying open

It will force our garage to close and lay off staff with mortgages . MOT is an important part of our work .
we see cars after 12 months and some really are not roadworthy, customers not realising they need brakes , tyres etc .
We took all the precautions to protect staff and customers and feel 6 months is far too long the government need to change this . They will put my garage out of business and there are now more people unemployed this was not thought out and no real help for garages , we have heard nothing about our rates etc and the landlord still expects his rent.
