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. 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.
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.
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. 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. Timing belts should be changed between 15,000 and 20,000 miles. A broken timing belt spells curtains for your engine. An Oil Change is needed to look after your engine. Remember to change all the filters on your engine.
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.
