Motorway driving, country lane driving or just to the shops and back, it is always expensive for running repairs and maintenance on your car. Browse through our website for tips on saving you money and getting the best mechanic for your needs.
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. It might be better to take your car to a garage that both tests and repairs your vehicle. Problem then is that you trust the integrity of the garage to not carry out repairs that don’t need done.
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. 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.
Keep the value of your car up by giving it a regular service. Timing belts need to be checked after 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. Regular oil changes will keep the engine healthy. Check all filters from time to time, such as oil filters, air filters etc.
