Motorhome MOT – Darwen

Motorhome MOTs You Can Count On

At Lodge Bank Garage in Darwen, we provide reliable, friendly, and thorough MOT testing for motorhomes. We understand that motorhomes are larger, more complex vehicles than standard cars, so we take extra care to ensure the inspection is carried out safely and efficiently. Our team makes the process simple and stress-free, whether your motorhome is used for weekend trips or long-distance touring.

Which MOT Class Does a Motorhome Fall Into?

Most motorhomes fall under Class 4, which includes:

Vehicles up to 3,000kg gross vehicle weight
Campervans and converted vans
Motorhomes with up to 12 passenger seats

However, some larger motorhomes – especially heavy coach-built models — may exceed the 3,000kg threshold, placing them into Class 7. Class 7 covers:

Heavier motorhomes between 3,000kg and 3,500kg
Larger commercial-style motorhome conversions

Many motorhomes do fit within Class 4, but it’s quite common for bigger models to require a Class 7 test. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to check the weight rating for you.

Class 4 Motorhome MOTs In-House

We perform Class 4 MOTs on-site, using equipment suitable for motorhomes to ensure accurate testing of brakes, suspension, lights, emissions, steering, and overall roadworthiness.

Class 7 Motorhome MOTs Arranged for You

If your motorhome falls into Class 7, we arrange the MOT through a trusted local partner garage that can accommodate larger vehicles. We handle the booking for you, ensuring the process is quick, convenient, and reliable.

I brought my car to Lodge Bank Garage for its MOT.
The process was straightforward and the staff were all very friendly. Jack was very professional, he explained everything to me clearly and was very helpful, making me feel reassured.
The service was completed promptly, and I felt that the team was honest and trustworthy. I would definitely recommend this garage to anyone looking for reliable service and excellent customer care. Thanks again.

This is a fantastic garage. I’ve taken my car here for its last few MOTs and the service has been great. It’s straight forward getting it booked in and the mechanics keep you updated on any work that needs doing. Really great friendly staff and overall great service, highly recommend!

Had my MOT & Service done here and couldn’t be happier. Booking was really easy and they provided a courtesy car, which was a huge help. Dropping off and picking up my car was quick and straightforward with no time wasted. The service was done to a high standard and up to manufacturer specs, and they updated my digital service record too. Great, professional garage – will definitely be back!

Always professional and know what they are doing, used them for a few years now for mine and my wife's car, I was told by Evans Halshaw who I was on a service contract with that my brakes needed doing, went to Lodge Bank and they told me nothing wrong with them and also said the timing belt was overdue so they did that, Evans Halshaw didn't mention that which could have been serious I had a further Mot a year later still no problem with brakes . The only garage I trust.
