Cheap vehicle parts - either online or locally - Shop around and always request a trade price.

Let me make a guess. You're looking for a part to fix your car so it can pass a MOT test. You are not alone; most of us attempt to keep the automobile in good condition throughout the year, but when the test comes around, we have to convince the examiner that it is roadworthy and not contributing excessively to global warming!

Nowadays, the test is high-tech, and exhaust emissions must be within your vehicle's specifications. Clean air filters can help with this, and they are simple and inexpensive to replace.

The primary goal of this site is to assist you in saving money and staying safe. As a result, my first cardinal rule is to "always ask for a trade price." Keep in mind that if the merchant wants your business, he will most likely offer you a discount. At worst, the answer will be "Engine replacement Maidstone" but you'd be shocked how much money you can save. Try it out!

We all desire cheap vehicle components, which means the most value for money. And, depending on your budget, you'll want to go with the best price available in your situation. You won't want a gold-plated item for your car if it has a limited lifespan.

Cheap auto components can be found online, at your local dealer, at motor factors, or at a breaker's yard.

How can you save money on the kind of things tested in the MOT? Light bulbs, brakes, suspension, tyres, windscreen and wipers, seat belts, exhaust, mirrors, and critical fluids (eg brake fluid, windscreen washer, engine coolant) may be required, and you can obtain these from the Motor Factors listed below.

Shop around is my second cardinal rule. In my hometown, we have the following motor factors (in alphabetical order): To mention a few, Bennetts, Eastern Autospares, Eurocarparts, Exhausts Unlimited, GSF, Halfords, Jayar, Motorparts Direct, and Wilco. And they will almost certainly charge quite different prices for the same parts.

As previously said, the primary goal of this site is to assist you in saving money and staying safe. One surprising option to accomplish this is to take your automobile to a council-run MOT center. Martin Lewis, a money saving expert, has this to say.

It's not the test fee that's expensive; it's the "fails" that are. However, because council-run MOT stations do not do repairs, they have no incentive to fail you, and thousands of people have reported a significant difference.

Windscreens, wipers, seat belts, exhausts, number plate*, mirrors, fuel cap, and fluids (brake fluid, windscreen washer, engine coolant) should all be checked. Check them all yourself or with a qualified, fairly priced mechanic, then check if you can use the Council-run test center.
