Probably semi solo is the wrong expression. Most people go to a certificated garage and pay a minimum of �500 for a MOT. What The advantage of this is that they will overlook any modifications in return for your business.
Or in each major city you have the opportunity of taking your vehicle to the County run MOT Centre, which is almost fully automated. Where for example you put the emissions testing machine into your own exhaust. Etc etc. this has the benefit of being very cheap it costs roughly �35. Many businesses make use of the system and make a nice tidy profit. However another drawback to the system is you actually need time off work to go there. Which your average Japanese citizen does not have.
