We MOT and service cars from all over South Norwood. If the test turns up work, we call you with a price before doing anything, and if you agree we fix it there and then rather than sending you away to book another appointment.
We come to you in South Norwood
Collection is from your door anywhere in South Norwood — the driveway, the street outside, a garage or a car park. South Norwood is about 12.2 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Portland Road or Station 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.

Where we work in South Norwood

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 South Norwood — 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 South Norwood?
South Norwood is about 12.2 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 Portland Road and Station 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 SE25?
Yes — every street in SE25, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Selhurst, Anerley, Elmers End and Thornton Heath, 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 Norwood Junction station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in South Norwood, 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 Portland Road — what should I do?
Put your hazards on, stay visible and ring 07961 100260. Give us the nearest house number or junction and we will tell you exactly where we will load. If the street is tightly parked we may winch the car out rather than reverse in, so it helps to know how much space there is.
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 South Norwood?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across South Norwood, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
