It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number 29215, and is authorised for 2 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2).

Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 5 of the 82 stations listed in Newcastle upon Tyne hold Class 1 or 2, and 44 of the 372 stations within 10 miles of this one do. It does not test Class 4 cars and light vans, so it is a specialist station rather than a general MOT garage; the 78 Class 4 stations in Newcastle upon Tyne are listed on the district page.

The nearest listed alternative is M & S Motorcycles Ltd, 0.1 miles away (Classes 1 and 2). 168 other stations sit within 5 miles and 372 within 10 miles, which makes this a dense area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 0.3 miles.
