Motorway driving, country lane driving or just to the shops and back, it is always expensive for running repairs and maintenance on your car. Follow our tips for finding the best garage and you will save money without a doubt.
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. You could consider having a garage that both tests and repairs cars to do the MOT. 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.
If you are in any doubt, government run MOT centres will carry out your test by the book and won’t be creating work for themselves on the back of your test. 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. 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. Change your oil to keep the engine running smoothly. Check all filters from time to time, such as oil filters, air filters etc.
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.
