Boy Racers and Sunday Drivers have one thing in common, the expense of repairs for your car, which always seem to be dearer than your last trip to the garage. Browse through our website for tips on saving you money and getting the best mechanic for your needs.
Looking for somewhere to have repairs done at a reasonable cost can be tricky, so take a look around using our directory and see if you can find the best of the bunch.
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. 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.
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.
MOT centres run by local government offices are less likely to create unneeded repairs as they don’t need to generate work as some garages do. 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.
Servicing, Servicing, Servicing. Timing belts should be changed between 15,000 and 20,000 miles. A broken timing belt will mean a new engine. Change your oil to keep the engine running smoothly. Remind your garage to change the filters when your oil gets changed.
However you decide to go, search or browse our Find Me A Garage website and you should be able to find just the right mechanic, service or repair at just the right price.
