Boy Racers and Sunday Drivers have one thing in common, the expense of repairs for your car, which always seem to be dearer than your last trip to the garage. Follow our tips for finding the best garage and you will save money without a doubt.
Unfortunately, garages have developed a terrible reputation for overcharging, so we have provided a directory of all the local garages in your area to let you browse around and choose the best one for your needs.
For your annual MOT test one option is to get a mechanic to look over your car beforehand and sort out any repairs he thinks need to be done. You could consider having a garage that both tests and repairs cars to do the MOT. You then trust the garage to not carry out unneeded repairs just to make money from you.
Brakes and tyre treads are often reasons for failing tests, and these can often be repaired more cheaply at specialist garages that buy components in bulk.
You can be sure that MOT centres that don’t carry out their own repairs will give you a straightforward test, and Government testing centres are better again. Dealerships provide an excellent service as they will have expert knowledge of your particular make of car, but they are generally the most expensive repair option.
Don't overlook how important regular servicing is. Timing belts need to be checked after 20,000 miles. A broken timing belt spells curtains for your engine. Change your oil to keep the engine running smoothly. Check all filters from time to time, such as oil filters, air filters etc.
If you can’t decide what you want to do about finding a garage, then browse our Find Me A Garage website directory, or use our extensive search facilities to find exactly what you need, whether that be repairs, MOT or Servicing.
