Recommendation for Garage/Car-Needs MOT

Recommended Posts

Hi everybody,


I am newish to the area and since being away for the last 6 months I have returned to a flat battery and an out of date MOT!

As I don't want to drive very far with a jump started battery I would really appreciate any recommendations for garages in the area (most of SE okay), somewhere that could check out my car first then do the MOT, even better!


Thanks for reading,

Harper

Try Knighton Motors, 159-161 Sydenham Road, London SE26. Their telephone no. is 020 87783109. The owner is a very friendly chap.


It is illegal to drive with an expired MOT. However, you can drive to a MOT test centre which you have pre-booked to get an MOT undertaken.

This is just a general recommendation for anyone else looking for a garage, you've probably sorted your problem out.


I can't recommend Blenheim Motors on Blenheim Grove near to Peckham Rye station highly enough - 50 Blenheim Grove, SE15 4QL, Tel 020 7639 0785. They are very friendly and easy to deal with, they give great advice and talk you through the problems. On more than one occasion have saved me money - including today when I took my car to them with a small chunk out of the side of the tire - they explained that it was still safe and roadworthy where more unscrupulous places might have just charged me for a new tire, they persuaded me to put my old car up for sale when I was ready to scrap it and are happy to discuss issues without charging for time. After dealing with other garages and dealerships where they seemed to take advantage and add on services and replacements as standard when doing the MOT I now won't take my car anywhere else.

    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
    • > however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. So what leads you to say that the dustmen have done damage to it?
