How To Find A Good Garage

Hobbies : Cars And Motoring

Recently more people have been ripped off by garages, but the majority of local ones can be perfectly reputable. So just make sure you know how to find one. Here's how:

Word of mouth is obviously the best option, and most assuring, so ask around your friends or neighbours and gather their opinions.

Its a good idea to search around online for reviews as well, and maybe use a reputable garage scheme such as Motor Codes (motorcodes.co.uk). It is very reliable because it is regulated by the SMMT.

Go to the garages rather than book over the phone, as you can really get a feel of the work ethic and staff. Maybe there will be awards on the walls etc too. If its busy you know you're onto a good one.

Get to know your car before you book it in. Work out what you think needs repairing and what doesnt. Check the type treads too.

Read up on your rights before work starts so you know what to do if you do get ripped off.
