About this data

• No hours, prices or availability. The DVSA list records who is approved to test, and which classes. It says nothing about when a station is open or what it charges.
• No caravan flag and no size limits. The list has Classes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 only. GOV.UK's fee table puts motor caravans in Class 4. A Class 7 listing does not show which individual vehicles a station can take.
• Pins and distances are approximate. Each pin sits at the station's postcode, and distances are in a straight line, not by road.
• It changes. DVSA publishes updates two or three times a year, so a station may have opened, closed or changed since 30 September 2026.
