MOT & Car Servicing in Kenley, Croydon
Book your MOT or service with us and we will collect from anywhere in Kenley at a time that suits you. You get a call when it is done, and your car comes back to the same spot — with the paperwork.
The MOT is the bit of car ownership everyone puts off, mostly because of the hassle of getting there and back. For drivers in Kenley we take that part away completely: we collect the car from your home or workplace, test it at our workshop, and bring it back.
Collection from anywhere in Kenley
Collection is from your door anywhere in Kenley — the driveway, the street outside, a garage or a car park. Kenley is about 16.2 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Godstone Road (A22) or Hayes Lane, so same-day and next-day collections are normally easy to arrange. The vehicle does not need to run — non-runners, no-key vehicles and flat tyres are all fine.
What you get in Kenley
- Free collection and delivery
- A call with a price before any extra work
- Repairs carried out the same visit
- MOT reminders so you do not miss it
- MOT testing for cars and light vans
- Interim and full servicing
Where we work in Kenley
Collections across Kenley are usually from the driveway or the street outside, and we are happy to pick up from a workplace near Kenley Aerodrome or from Kenley station if that is easier for you. Leave the keys with a neighbour or reception if you will not be in.
If you stop on Godstone Road (the A22), it is a main road — get the vehicle to the kerb or a side street if it will roll, put the hazards on and wait somewhere safe, not in the car.
If you do not know the street name, a landmark is just as good: Kenley Aerodrome, Kenley Common and Riddlesdown, or Kenley station. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
Honest pricing in Kenley
We do not work from a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Ring 07961 100260 with the details and we will give you one fixed price for Kenley — no extras added on the day. We take card and bank transfer.

MOT & Car Servicing in Kenley — FAQs
How does MOT collection work?
Tell us your registration and where the car is. We confirm the MOT due date, collect the car at a time that suits you, carry out the test at our workshop and return it — usually the same day.
How quickly can you reach me in Kenley?
Kenley is about 16.2 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually around an hour, normally coming in via Godstone Road (A22) and Hayes Lane. Traffic, the time of day and how many jobs are running all move that, so when you ring 07961 100260 we give you a real window for that moment rather than a best case.
What happens if my car fails its MOT?
We call you with the reasons and a fixed price for the repairs. If you agree, we do the work and re-test it straight away. If you would rather take it elsewhere, that is your choice — you only pay for the test.
Do you cover all of CR8?
Yes — every street in CR8, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Purley, Sanderstead, Coulsdon and Selsdon, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
Can I have a service at the same time as the MOT?
Yes, and it is often cheaper and quicker to do both in one visit. Ask for an interim or full service when you book.
My car won't start at Kenley station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Kenley, usually for a flat battery after the car has sat all day. Tell us which car park and roughly where you are parked. If it has a height barrier or a pay-on-exit gate, mention that too and we will send the right vehicle and sort the exit with you.
How early can I MOT my car?
You can have the MOT up to a month (minus a day) before it runs out and keep the same renewal date. We can check your due date from the registration.
I have broken down on Godstone Road — what should I do?
That is a main road, so safety first: if the car can roll, get it to the kerb or into a side road, switch on your hazards, and wait somewhere safe away from the traffic — not in the car. Then ring 07961 100260. Red routes and bus lanes are enforced quickly, so we prioritise moving vehicles off them.
Do I need to be at home for the collection?
No. Many customers leave the keys with a neighbour, a concierge or reception at work. We agree the arrangements with you in advance.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Kenley?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Kenley, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
