Salem Lane, Wellingborough
MOT's while
you wait.
A family run MOT testing station and garage on Salem Lane. Henry Patel has been looking after the cars of Wellingborough since 1984, with servicing, repairs and service with a smile.
A Wellingborough name since 1984
“Henry Patel hardly needs any introduction to the motorist of Wellingborough.”
Henry started out as an apprentice with York Ward & Rowlett in 1970 and has been maintaining cars to a high standard ever since. In 1984 he opened his own garage in Arthur Street, and by 1988 the business had grown enough to move to its current home on Salem Lane.
Within a year it had become an MOT testing station. Today five mechanics work alongside Henry, including both of his sons.
