About this station

S J Martin Autocare is an MOT test station at 58 Oxford Street, Leicester, LE1 5XW, in Leicester (East Midlands). It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number 4620A8, and is authorised for 4 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2), three-wheelers up to 450kg (Class 3) and cars, light vans and motor caravans up to 3,000kg (Class 4).

Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 11 of the 136 stations listed in Leicester hold Class 1 or 2, and 32 of the 233 stations within 10 miles of this one do. Three-wheeler (Class 3) testing is rarer still, with 4 stations in the district. It also tests Class 4 cars and light vans, the class 133 of the district's 136 stations share.

The nearest listed alternative is Sheffield & Meredith, 0.2 miles away (Class 4). 181 other stations sit within 5 miles and 233 within 10 miles, which makes this a dense area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 0.5 miles.

The DVSA statutory maximum fee applies to every class this station tests: Class 1 £29.65, Class 2 £29.65, Class 3 £37.80, Class 4 £54.85. Garages can charge less and most do: £30-45 is the typical Class 4 car price in Midlands according to this site's price guide, against the £54.85 cap. Motorcycle tests are typically £20-29 against the £29.65 cap. Confirm the price with the station before booking; prices are not part of the DVSA register.

No Companies House company was matched to this trading name and postcode on 1 May 2026. That is common for MOT garages, many of which trade as sole traders or partnerships, and it says nothing about the station's authorisation, which comes from the DVSA list above.
