Motorway driving, country lane driving or just to the shops and back, it is always expensive for running repairs and maintenance on your car. 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 MOT many mechanics simply offer the option of assessing and carrying out the work to your car or van. Taking your car to an approved MOT testing garage that can also carry out repairs is another option. 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.
You can be sure that MOT centres that don’t carry out their own repairs will give you a straightforward test, and Government testing centres are better again. Dealerships provide an excellent service as they will have expert knowledge of your particular make of car, but they are generally the most expensive repair option.
It's important to get a regular service. 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.
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.
