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.
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.
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. You could consider having a garage that both tests and repairs cars to do the MOT. You are now in the lap of the gods and it is down to the honesty of the garage and its mechanics to be sure that you don’t have repairs carried out that aren’t actually needed.
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. They are almost always more expensive, but a dealer in your make of car will provide a top quality service.
Servicing, Servicing, Servicing. Be sure to check the timing belt, which is sometimes called the cam belt. A broken timing belt spells curtains for your engine. Change your oil to keep the engine running smoothly. Remember to change all the filters on your engine.
If you can’t decide what you want to do about finding a garage, then browse our Find Me A Garage website directory, or use our extensive search facilities to find exactly what you need, whether that be repairs, MOT or Servicing.
