Abingdon is approximately nine miles south of Oxford on the A415 between Dorchester and Witney. The MG Car Factory was based in Abingdon from 1929 until it was closed by British Leyland in 1980. Unfortunately, the town doesn't have any direct rail links, but there are plenty of buses in the area, mostly operated by the Oxford Bus Company. In 2021, the number of electric cars in the Vale of White Horse (which includes Abingdon) rose by 50%.

Abingdon is in a rural area where you're likely to encounter uneven road surfaces and sharp turns, putting strain on your tyres and suspension. Regularly inspecting these components and following our tyre maintenance advice will help prevent any problems from developing. When driving through the countryside near Abingdon, keep an eye out for animals and livestock on the road to avoid braking suddenly, and be aware of other road users since there may be unmarked blind bends. Country roads sometimes flood during heavy rainfall, so check the forecast and take it slow through patches of water to avoid aquaplaning.

An MOT is a standard vehicle roadworthiness test determined by the government, while a full car service isn't a legal requirement and can vary from one garage to the next. However, the two go hand in hand.

Some drivers book a full car service and MOT test at the same time (the MOT should always be done before the service) since they are both carried out annually. Doing so has several benefits: it saves time because you don't have to take two trips to the garage and ensures your car is in excellent condition, preventing future repair bills.

Certain garages may offer a car servicing and MOT deal, which works out cheaper than booking the two jobs separately. That's why, if you want to book an MOT and full service check, you should shop around for the best price on FixMyCar.
