We all drive different ways and for different needs, for work, pleasure or excitement. Follow our tips for finding the best garage and you will save money without a doubt.
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. Taking your car to an approved MOT testing garage that can also carry out repairs is another option. 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.
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 won’t be cheap, but a dealer that looks after your make of car exclusively will almost always give you good quality service.
It's important to get a regular service. When you get to 20,000 miles you should be looking to change your timing belt. 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.
The choices are bewildering, but our Find Me A Garage service will give you all the options available in your area, browse through our pages or use our search facilities to find just the right mechanic for you, that offers services, MOT and repairs.
