We all drive different ways and for different needs, for work, pleasure or excitement. Vehicles come in all sorts of shapes styles and powers, and reflect the way you live your life, but a trip to the garage is expensive no matter what.
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 MOT many mechanics simply offer the option of assessing and carrying out the work to your car or van. Another route is to use a garage that carries out MOTs and does the repairs themselves. You then trust the garage to not carry out unneeded repairs just to make money from you.
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. If you look for a garage, an expensive but high quality option is to go to a dealership for your make of vehicle.
Don't overlook how important regular servicing is. When you get to 20,000 miles you should be looking to change your timing belt. A broken timing belt will mean a new engine. Regular oil changes will keep the engine healthy. Check all filters from time to time, such as oil filters, air filters etc.
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.
