Getting an MOT
Please can anyone advise where we can get our Spanish car MOT'd with an English speaking garage as I believe its a 2 step process.
Many thanks

It's an ITV and it's carried out at your local ITV test centre, unfortunately you are in Spain so they are Spanish test centres with Spanish staff

The only place around that has any English speaking staff is ITV La Hoya outside Lorca - they advertise heavily on Spectrum FM

Your nearest is Vera. Signposted on the E15. If you don't want to, ask your local garage to do it for you. Have a pre-itv, and ask if they will do it. We have used Sorroche at Uleila, great service, nice to deal with, good English. In fact, he is at itv now with our motorhome.

Agree with Dario, bit of a treck as it takes about 45 minutes from Zurgena as it is junction 623 on the A7. You can usually get an appointment same day or day after. You just need your car details and TIE as proof of 🆔, takes about 30 minutes. The office speak English and you take the car through yourself or one of the mechanics will take it through for you.
With it being a bit of a journey, get your car serviced and checked before you go so you can nearly guarantee it will pass first time.
Good luck,
Paul.
