🇬🇧Built for UK Garages • Live DVSA MOT Integration
DIGITAL VEHICLE CHECKLISTS
The modern platform for automotive workshops. Design custom inspection checklists, log car histories, manage client files, and share professional digital reports instantly.
Paper inspection sheets are lost, difficult to read, and don't provide customers with the clarity they deserve. eGarage transforms how your mechanics inspect cars and communicate findings.
Our platform handles the operational details so your team can focus on servicing cars, tracking logs, and growing your workshop.
Create tailored inspection forms featuring tick boxes, comments, green/yellow/red status indicators, and dedicated tyre tread depth selector widgets.
Vehicle History Logs
A persistent chronological record of all checklist inspections, repairs, and odometer logs linked directly to each vehicle's license plate.
Customer CRM
Back-link cars and owners. Register new vehicle details with automatic uppercase plate formatting and link them to existing or brand new customer profiles.
Team Workspaces
Collaborate with multiple mechanics under a shared workshop profile. Customize settings with your garage logo, branding colors, and coordinate access permissions.
Photo Integrations
Capture vehicle conditions directly from the shop floor. Upload photos from native library picker or camera to document tyre wear or damaged parts.
Branded Client Sharing
Share results via web link. Reports render tyre warnings automatically (Red ≤ 1.6mm, Orange ≤ 3.0mm) so clients see exactly what needs replacing.
MOT Reminders
Let customers subscribe to automated email alerts (1 month, 7 days, 3 days before expiry) directly from digital sheets or public forms. Backed by automatic DVSA status validation.

CUSTOMER VERDICT
"eGarage saved me over 30 minutes of paperwork on every single job. I don't have to keep duplicate paper carbon copies anymore, and my customers love getting an interactive report with photos and MOT countdowns right on their phones."
— WESTLEY MILLER, OWNER OF W M AUTOS MOBILE MECHANIC
PREVIOUS CHALLENGE
Carbon Copy Paperwork & Misplaced Notes
Filling out traditional paper inspection pads out in the field was slow and cumbersome. Keeping two copies of every sheet (one for the customer, one for garage archives) meant filing cabinets stuffed with paper, constant risk of misplaced job records, and no easy way to show clients photos of failing parts.
EGARAGE SOLUTION
Fast Mobile Checks & Instant WhatsApp Reports
Using the bespoke W. M. AUTOS MOBILE MECHANIC SERVICE & INSPECTION PREMIUM CHECKLIST template, Westley taps through status checkpoints, attaches photo evidence of worn brake pads or leaks, pulls live DVSA MOT expiry dates, and dispatches an interactive link directly to the customer's phone.

WHY WORKSHOPS SWITCH
eGarage is built specifically for the shop floor, eliminating paperwork headaches and streamlining customer communications.
Fast Shop Floor Lookup
Rapid registration plate search, instant past inspection histories, and quick vehicle intake. Look up any vehicle in seconds.
Zero Paperwork
Eliminate lost paper inspection sheets, grease-stained notes, and unreadable handwriting. All records are digital and searchable.
Instant Client Approval
Send clear digital reports directly to clients with colored status badges (Green/Amber/Red) and photo evidence for fast job authorization.
Automated MOT Reminders
Keep workshops busy and clients compliant. Automated emails are dynamically scheduled and verified against live DVSA MOT database records.
Workshop-Ready Simplicity
Designed for mobile and tablets on the shop floor. Big touch targets, dark-mode styling, and quick input fields mean no complex training required.
MOT REMINDERS
Keep your customers coming back and keep vehicles compliant with
automated, self-driving email notifications.
Automated & Verified Alert System
Our background engine constantly monitors the vehicle registry via the
live DVSA API. Before any alert is sent out (30 days, 7 days, or 3
days prior to expiration), we verify if the vehicle has already
completed their test. If they have, the platform automatically syncs
the new expiration date and schedules the cycle for the next
year-fully hands-free.
Everything you need to know about digital vehicle checklists, DVSA MOT lookups, and eGarage.
What is digital vehicle inspection software?
Digital vehicle inspection (DVI) software allows mechanics and mobile workshops to replace paper carbon copies with digital car health checklists. Mechanics can perform multi-point inspections on smartphones or tablets, record tyre tread depths, attach camera photos of worn parts, and dispatch digital reports directly to customers via WhatsApp or Email.
How does the UK DVSA MOT lookup feature work?
Simply type any UK registration plate during a vehicle check or customer registration. eGarage automatically queries the official UK DVSA database to import vehicle specifications (make, model, year, fuel type, engine capacity), past MOT history advisory notes, and calculate exact MOT expiration countdown alerts.
Can I perform car checklists offline without mobile signal?
Yes. eGarage is built for real-world garage bays and remote service calls. Inspection drafts and photos are saved locally on your mobile device even without internet connection, and automatically sync to your secure cloud database once connection is restored.
How do customers receive their inspection reports?
With a single tap on your mobile phone, eGarage dispatches an interactive digital inspection link or PDF report with your garage logo, workshop contact info, green/orange/red status breakdown, tyre safety gauges, and photo proof directly to your client via WhatsApp, SMS, or Email.
Can I customize checklist templates for my workshop?
Absolutely. eGarage includes a visual Template Builder allowing you to create custom checkpoints for full service checks, pre-MOT inspections, DPF diagnostics, brake safety checks, or EV health checks. You can also import ready-to-use templates from the built-in Template Marketplace.
