Is there a fixed fee for MOT's - or can a garage charge what it likes?

They can charge up to the set maximum, currently 42.10 for Class IV.
They can do them for free if they feel it makes business sense.

Nationwide Autocentres do it for 32.10 if you have a Tesco Clubcard. I've
not had any problems with them having used two different branches. Our local
paper often has adverts from local testing centres offering cut price tests
too.
