About this station

Firstline Motorcycles Limited is an MOT test station at 462-464 Bowes Road, Arnos Grove, London, N11 1NL, in Enfield (London). It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number V101461, and is authorised for 2 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2).

Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 8 of the 66 stations listed in Enfield hold Class 1 or 2, and 96 of the 638 stations within 10 miles of this one do. It does not test Class 4 cars and light vans, so it is a specialist station rather than a general MOT garage; the 65 Class 4 stations in Enfield are listed on the district page.

The nearest listed alternative is Brunswick Garage, 0.2 miles away (Classes 4, 5 and 7). 181 other stations sit within 5 miles and 638 within 10 miles, which makes this a dense area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 0.7 miles.

The DVSA statutory maximum fee applies to every class this station tests: Class 1 £29.65, Class 2 £29.65. Motorcycle tests are typically £20-29 against the £29.65 cap. Confirm the price with the station before booking; prices are not part of the DVSA register.
