MOT & Car Servicing in Keston, Bromley
The MOT is the bit of car ownership everyone puts off, mostly because of the hassle of getting there and back. For drivers in Keston we take that part away completely: we collect the car from your home or workplace, test it at our workshop, and bring it back.
Book your MOT or service with us and we will collect from anywhere in Keston 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.
We come to you in Keston
We collect from every street in BR2 with our own truck, at a time agreed with you. Keston is about 10.6 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Westerham Road (A233) or Croydon Road, 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.

Around Keston: roads, landmarks and stations
Many of our Keston customers have us collect from work, from the car parks around Keston Common, or from home on the roads off Westerham Road (A233). Whichever suits, the collection and return are part of the service.
If you stop on Westerham Road (the A233), 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.
Not sure of the exact address? Give us a nearby reference point — Keston Common, Keston Ponds, Holwood House and Wilberforce Oak, or Hayes station — and we will find you. You can also drop us a pin from your phone's map app.
Fixed price, agreed before we start
You will know the cost before we commit to anything. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Once we have agreed a figure, that is what you pay — nothing is added afterwards. We take card and bank transfer.

MOT & Car Servicing in Keston — 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 Keston?
Keston is about 10.6 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, normally coming in via Westerham Road (A233) and Croydon Road. 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 BR2?
Yes — every street in BR2, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Hayes, Bromley, Farnborough Village, New Addington and West Wickham, 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 Hayes station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Keston, 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 Westerham 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 Keston?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Keston, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
