Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 9 of the 56 stations listed in Moray hold Class 1 or 2, and 5 of the 34 stations within 10 miles of this one do. It also tests Class 4 cars and light vans, the class 53 of the district's 56 stations share.

The DVSA statutory maximum fee applies to every class this station tests: Class 1 £29.65, Class 2 £29.65, Class 4 £54.85. Garages can charge less and most do: £30-45 is the typical Class 4 car price in Scotland 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.
