A profitable freehold MOT and vehicle service centre is for sale in Salford, Greater Manchester. Guide price £850,000 for 100% of the shares in the company, to include the freehold. This opportunity suits an established operator seeking a bolt-on site in Greater Manchester or a property developer/investor exploring alternative use or residential reinstatement, subject to the necessary consents. The business trades Monday to Friday, 08:30–17:00, and is closed at weekends, leaving clear scope to extend hours and increase throughput.
The company delivers Class 4 MOTs and general servicing/repairs, operating a single MOT lane with pit, two 2-post lifts and one 4-post lift. The freehold was previously configured as a four-bedroom house, creating an interesting angle for developers wishing to reinstate accommodation or consider mixed/alternative use, subject to planning. The location serves a dense residential catchment with schools nearby, supporting recurring local demand and convenient daytime drop-offs.
Financial performance is consistent and well evidenced: FY2025 turnover £485,912 with profit of £101,243; FY2024 turnover £490,751 with profit of £130,445; FY2023 turnover £479,891 with profit of £124,086. A share sale is sought to preserve continuity and minimise disruption.
