ITV

Hi. Just wondering if someone knows a good ITV place to take the car. Do they speak English? Thanks

Take it Talleros Enrique, outside the Arches, he will get the ITV sorted out for you.

Hi

You could take it Talleres Yogesh. They will check the car over and take it to the ITV station for you.

So do garage alonso & hijos , off the roundabout cv 905 junc signposted 'Camino'

Or if your car doesn't need any work and is ready for testing, just take it to the ITV station beside the Vega Baja Hospital. Really easy to find, the guy in the office and a couple of the guys in the station speak English, so they'll look after you. That way you don't have to pay someone else to do the test for you. It's really easy.
Incidentally, it's easier to get your car through at Vega Baja than Torrevieja, so I'd stick to that location.

I quite agree with all that, except that over the years (14 in my case), I have found that the ITV centre at Redovan is better than Vega Baja and FAR better than Torrevieja.

Over the years. i have tried most of the ITV stations, they are all of a similar standard, the difference are that some are far busier than others. Torrevieja is by far the busiest.
It is always best to BOOK an appointment on line, the web page is :-

This covers the three sites, Torrevieja, Orihuela (San Bartolome), Pilar de la Horadada.
Pilar is the least busy.
Just fill in the web page and they will confirm the appointment with you.

Thank you everyone. Can I get directions to the Vega Baga one please

Thanks

From Rojales, out through Formentera to roundabouts at AP-7 motorway and take road towards Orihuela (CV 910) and its on left at 2nd roundabout you come to - just before the Vega Baja hospital.
