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.
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.
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. Of course many garages carry out repairs and do the testing themselves, and this is an option you could consider. The pitfalls of doing the second option is that you are wholly and completely reliant on the honesty of the garage not to say the car needs more work than it actually does.
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.
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. When you are looking for a garage, a registered dealer that specialises in your make of car is the best, but generally most expensive option.
Don't overlook how important regular servicing is. Timing belts should be changed between 15,000 and 20,000 miles. Think about your timing belt, this needs to be checked and changed because if the timing belt breaks then it will cause a lot of damage to your engine. An oil change for your car is as good as a major overhaul. Remember to change all the filters on your engine.
