Servicing and MOT testing

Car servicing is the core of the garage's offer. The workshop presents it as affordable servicing for an expansive range of cars, backed by diagnostic equipment. Customers can combine a service with an MOT test; the garage notes that an MOT can be taken up to one month before the test date, allowing both visits to be consolidated into one trip.

MOT testing is offered at CSG Automotive and Just MOT. Through its sister garage, Cottage Street Garage also provides MOT Class 7 in Macclesfield. The premises are described as purpose-built to accommodate large vehicles, including long-wheelbase vans such as the Mercedes Sprinter, as well as motorhomes and horse boxes.

Tyres, brakes, exhausts and air conditioning

The garage stocks a wide range of car tyres and fits them to all makes and models, with a search tool by size and registration. It also lists exhausts, brakes and air conditioning recharge among its services. The site presents Cottage Street Garage as Macclesfield's premier tyre fitter and supplier, and separately as the town's number one MOT test centre; both are the company's own descriptions.

Electric vehicle capability

Cottage Street Garage states that it has specially trained mechanics for full EV servicing and repairs. It also claims to be the only garage in Macclesfield certified to carry out a full electric vehicle shutdown, a procedure it says ensures the safety of the mechanic working on the major electrical circuit of an EV.
