MOT and service South East London

[Sandra101]

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a garage close to South East London for me to take my 1989 VW Atlantic for its first MOT and service. I don't mind traveling to go somewhere good. I am hoping that it won't need any work but if it does do people think I should go to a specialist garage in the first instance of wait to find out if I need any work?

Thanks

Sandra

A service doesn't cover all the MOT tests. So first take it for an MOT at a recommended garage. If it fails on anything then get that fixed when you get it serviced and have it retested.

I am sure someone on here will point you to a localish MOT station and a good service garage (possibly even the same place).

Can somebody assist Sandra101? There must be somebody close by.

Thanks Ralph85 - hopefully someone else will see my post...

Hi Sandra, looks like a few of the members on here have used Riverside Garage in Charlton. Does MOT & servicing & know T25's well:

VW Airfix in Carshalton also gets a mention:

I currently take mine to Elite in Essex as I bought an engine from them and am getting itserviced to keep up the warranty. Have no complaints about their work although they are usually pretty busy.

That's brilliant - thank you. Carlton is only about half an hour from me

Hi,

Can't help with servicing as do it all myself, but always used this lot for MOT's:

Cracking bunch of people, very helpful and very fair tests in spotlessly clean MOT bays. Will miss using them now I've moved up north!

Cheers,
