Coombe Valley MOT Centre

Super nice staff very efficient and honest even got free windscreen wippers. 5 star really recommended

Absolutely fantastic service. Had an emergency and these guys were just brilliant. Quick, professional and amazing value. Couldn’t recommend them more highly. Thanks for all your help today!!

The most helpful and nice mechanics. They were very fast at finding the problem and sorted it out on the same day so we could drive away with MOT.
Thanks for your help, guys

I live in France, but i'm moving to the UK.

So, I swapped my French car for a UK car with a guy in Lyon. However, the MOT ran out in March, so in April I decided to drive to the UK to get an MOT (using the shortest route of course - that was 2361km round trip!).

My ferry was massively delayed at Calais, so I called and explained. No problem at all, bumped it on a few hours to a spot later in the afternoon.

The added complication was my battery went flat on the ferry, because the alarm went nuts due to the extremely choppy sea. The battery probably wasn't good as the car had been sitting in a field doing nothing for 6+ months. Luckily the Irish Ferries guys got me started again with their booster thingy. But....I did say to Jonno at Coombe Valley...."That's my car there, if I turn the engine off, it may never start again....is that a problem?".

Jonno said "Not a problem, we can get it started again, but it'll be fine".

Indeed it was fine, MOT passed, so I could tax it right away.

This day was actually my (rather significant) birthday, although not the usual thing one does to celebrate, it felt amazing. I did go on to Brighton later on and had a superb night out with a close friend, so I'm not a total saddo.

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure there are no ANPR cameras between the ferry port and Coombe Valley MOT. So if you have been out of the UK for a while and need get your motor legal ASAP, this is your best route.

Booked our motorhome in for an MOT straight after crossing from France. Communication prior was helpful and friendly and all the staff we dealt with were excellent. Thoroughly recommend.

Jonathan is is very helpful and professional and trusted this is where I take all my vehicles

Great service from a very nice guy.
He does MOTS and nothing but and no links to repair garages.
He also has a great advantage for lower cars as he uses a pit not ramps, so no working about the front been damaged going up or down the ramps.
One final thing. The workshop is spotlessly clean as is the wsiting room
