Guest motlyman Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Hi all, In the UK i had a MOT station and it was always busy. The reason was because it only did MOTs. People believed they were getting an unbiased test, as many test stations were attatched to a workshop, hence failing a car for the repair work. Can anyone answer these questions....... Are there any safety check stations in Qld that just do safety checks? If so are they busy? Are any stations busy ie 2 or 3 days to get an appointment? Whats the average charge or are they all the same? Do many have mobile guys attatched to them? Thanks Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time that you need a statutory safety check is when you're selling, so I reckon there ain't that much work, especially now that folk ain't buying new at the moment. kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have what is called a "pink slip", basically an MOT required each year (after the first three years) as part of the annual "rego" (tax disc to you).
