Need an MOT in Northolt? MH Auto Repair Centre can arrange it for you. We book your MOT at an authorised MOT test centre nearby, check the car over beforehand and carry out any MOT repairs at our family-run workshop in Perivale/Greenford, along the A40 from Northolt. We are a car body repair specialist and a full garage, with servicing, diagnostics, tyres and suspension work too. WhatsApp 07533 280206 with your registration and MOT due date to get started.
How we sort your MOT from Northolt
We are not an MOT test station ourselves. Instead, we book your MOT at an authorised MOT test centre nearby and look after the work on either side of the test:
- A check before the test: our pre-MOT inspection looks for problems that are worth fixing before the car goes in.
- Repairs after a fail or advisories: we quote once we have inspected the car and carry out the MOT repairs at our workshop.
- Rust and body damage: the MOT looks at the bodywork for excessive corrosion and sharp edges. Bodywork is our specialism, and we also handle welding repairs.
To start, WhatsApp 07533 280206 with the registration, make and model, and the date your current MOT expires. More detail is on our MOT page.
Checking when your MOT is due
According to GOV.UK, a car’s first MOT is due by the third anniversary of its registration, and then once a year. You can get the MOT done up to a month (minus a day) before the current one runs out and still keep the same renewal date. You can look up your due date and past results with the free GOV.UK MOT history check.
Northolt customers, one workshop
Northolt is known for its Central line station, the A40 Western Avenue and RAF Northolt, and it borders Greenford. We do not have a Northolt branch. Our one workshop is at MH Auto Repair Centre Ltd., Unit 17, Fleetway Business Park, 14–16 Wadsworth Rd, Perivale, Greenford UB6 7LD, and Northolt customers bring their cars to us there. Please check your route before travelling, since we do not give journey times.
Repairs Northolt drivers can book with us
Daily commuting on busy roads means cars pick up chips, scrapes and wear. Here is how we can help:
- Bodywork: car body repairs, including panel repair and car painting
- Stone chips and small marks: paint repair
- Wheels: tyre fitting, wheel balancing and wheel alignment
- Ride and handling: suspension repairs
- Warning lights: vehicle diagnostics
For the yearly jobs, we arrange your MOT and carry out car servicing at the same workshop.

MOT and garage questions from Northolt drivers
Do you have a workshop in Northolt?
No. We operate from one workshop in Perivale/Greenford (UB6 7LD) and serve Northolt drivers from there.
Can you look at wheel and tyre problems?
Yes. We fit tyres, balance wheels, check alignment and repair damaged alloys. See tyres and alloy wheel repair.
What if my car is not safe to drive?
Message us before moving it. We can talk you through vehicle recovery options and what happens next.
Can I get an MOT in Northolt through you?
Yes. We book your MOT at an authorised MOT test centre nearby, so you do not have to find a slot yourself. We can do a pre-MOT check at our Perivale workshop first and carry out any MOT repairs afterwards. WhatsApp 07533 280206 with your registration and MOT due date.
What happens if my car fails its MOT?
Send us the failure items and we will quote for the repairs after inspecting the car. GOV.UK says you can only drive a failed car away if your current MOT is still valid and no dangerous problems were listed; otherwise it needs repairing first. Our MOT repairs page explains how we handle this.
