Motorway driving, country lane driving or just to the shops and back, it is always expensive for running repairs and maintenance on your car. Our website may be just the ticket to help you enjoy your driving and get the best out of your car, so look out for our money saving tips scattered throughout the site.
If you are tired of going to the same garage and getting the same high prices why not take a look through our website and search for another mechanic in your area that could be better value.
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. Another route is to use a garage that carries out MOTs and does the repairs themselves. 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.
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.
Look out for local government MOT centres, these are impartial and will help keep the bills down whilst ensuring that your car is safe and sound on the roads. They won’t be cheap, but a dealer that looks after your make of car exclusively will almost always give you good quality service.
Don't overlook how important regular servicing is. Timing belts should be changed between 15,000 and 20,000 miles. Don’t let your timing belt break or you will need to buy a new engine. An oil change for your car is as good as a major overhaul. Remind your garage to change the filters when your oil gets changed.
If you find that there are too many choices for you, and can’t decide on the many options available, then our comprehensive Find Me A Garage web directory will provide you with the ability to find just the garage and mechanics that you need.
