Whatever sort of vehicle you drive, large, small or commercial, they all need repairs from time to time, and they always cost a lot. Follow our tips for finding the best garage and you will save money without a doubt.
Don’t trust your mate's brother in law to fix your treasured vehicle, take a look at our database and find a reputable garage instead, it'll save you in the long run.
When it comes to your MOT some garage mechanics will look at your car first and carry our any remedial works. Taking your car to an approved MOT testing garage that can also carry out repairs is another option. This is where it becomes important that you don’t use a garage that might charge you for repairs to get the car through its test that don’t actually need to be carried out.
Typically the things that you get charged for are brakes, tyre treads, light bulbs and windscreen washers as these are little things that could be fixed cheaper by doing your own repairs.
Government testing centres are a good bet, your car will be guaranteed to be properly tested without any split loyalties on the part of the mechanic and will ensure you save money in the long run. If you look for a garage, an expensive but high quality option is to go to a dealership for your make of vehicle.
Don't overlook how important regular servicing is. When you get to 20,000 miles you should be looking to change your timing belt. Don’t let your timing belt break or you will need to buy a new engine. Regular oil changes will keep the engine healthy. Check all filters from time to time, such as oil filters, air filters etc.
