Close to Lidl on the Polis road, on the right side when driving up - best to have an appointment though - it's a busy place.

Funnily enough they passed my friend's car even though it had illegal tyres ……………………...!

I too always use the one mentioned opposite Lidl's. The afternoons are usually quieter, and I think they close for lunch..

And I always get a free cup of Joe.
I've used them it seems forever, they did find a problem on my last visit with the milage as he called it (mileage) it was not correct, too low, he contact the Car Dealer I bought this car from two years earlier, the dealer offered me the total cash back (amazing dealer) free motoring for two years!, I chose another newer motor that I have been happy with, all in all, I recommend this MOT station, and I will continue to use.

Neil, my name is Jim,
hello, the car was, in fact, a trade-in from another local dealer, the car a Honda Jazz was the most reliable car I have ever owned, I almost kept it, in some ways I wished I had. And yes there are some dodgy dealers in Paphos. It is very easy to clock new cars electronically, in fact, you can phone them to come and do this if say your old dash mileage meter goes west. But many car electricians can do this also. As in my case mileage changes are usually picked up by the MOT inspector.
My dealer who I used was a very honest man, he still is, he instantly gave me the option of keeping the car and getting the mileage sorted out properly or the option I took to get that full refund and put that to a newer motor as I did.
I have had several cars from him, they have always been excellent honest motors, most of them are from Japan, we have another car a 3-year-old VW Polo also purchased from him another Jap import, as did my neighbour, I would use the same dealer again in the near future, trust is a commodity you cannot buy easily.
If you want his contacts then PM me.

That would be a Toyota Vitz. Do not know that dealer personally, your friend I wish him happy motoring. The Vitz can also be called the Toyota Yaris, just badge engineering.

Our friends lived next door to Russians for 14 years, they never had their car MOT'd or taxed. Reckoned it was worth taking the risk not to.

Neil morning, if it says Vitz on the motor then it's a Toyota, Honda makes the Jazz similar size but certainly not a Toyota, take a picture as I know Toyota produce the Vitz/Yaris,(same model) just take a look around you will see both they are very popular, rightly so. You cannot imagine Hondas stealing the name "Vitz".

The only thing I can think of he has purchased a
Honda Fit, again the same car as the Honda Jazz just badge engineered again.
