Can anyone recommend a garage         Orihuela city area to do a few small jobs needed for ITV. 

Because of lockdown I will not be able to have work done until Aug. That's when ITV expires.

Just need a couple of possible garages so I can arrange in advance then arrange the ITV.

Thank you.

This post that was quoted has been deleted.

Is that only for ITV that expire during lockdown.

Mine runs out in early August. Around the same time we come over for 2 weeks.

I just need a few jobs doing to it before I book it in first.  I'm trying to find a garage close to La Matanza area...thought Orihuela was best as it is only about 5 miles away.

it was announced by the ministry of transport that if you itv is due between 21st july and 31st august you have a 3 month extension,  if it was before then you only have a 4 month extension not a 6 month one!

so you have 3 months from the expiration date of the itv to have it re-tested, 

hope this gives you a more conclusive answer, as for a garage in orihuela it depends if you can speak Spanish or not, but there are a few decent ones. 

Hope this helps

Thank you Kh511 a bit of breathing space.

Arrive on 1st Aug for 2 weeks so that gives me a bit of time to find a garage that will fit ignition column and door handles before I book it in for ITV in late Sept
