Motorway driving, country lane driving or just to the shops and back, it is always expensive for running repairs and maintenance on your car. Vehicles come in all sorts of shapes styles and powers, and reflect the way you live your life, but a trip to the garage is expensive no matter what.
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.
When it comes to your MOT some garage mechanics will look at your car first and carry our any remedial works. Another route is to use a garage that carries out MOTs and does the repairs themselves. You are now in the lap of the gods and it is down to the honesty of the garage and its mechanics to be sure that you don’t have repairs carried out that aren’t actually needed.
Garages enjoy charging high rates for the most minor things, learn how to change your own oil and air filters and spark plugs and you will definitely save money.
If you are in any doubt, government run MOT centres will carry out your test by the book and won’t be creating work for themselves on the back of your test. 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.
It's important to get a regular service. Timing belts need to be checked after 20,000 miles. A broken timing belt spells curtains for your engine. Look after your engine by giving it an oil change. Remember to change all the filters on your engine.
The choices are bewildering, but our Find Me A Garage service will give you all the options available in your area, browse through our pages or use our search facilities to find just the right mechanic for you, that offers services, MOT and repairs.
