The Borough of Croydon has the most traffic collisions of any London borough as of 2022. Much of the town centre in Croydon is pedestrianised, so plan your route carefully if you're going to drive. North End is completely closed off to cars, and there are diversion routes in place to keep traffic away. Transport for London operates several bus routes in and around Croydon, most of which serve West Croydon bus station, next to the railway station.
Driving in cities like Croydon puts extra strain on your car due to long periods of idling and frequent stopping and starting in traffic. The parts most at risk are the brakes, cooling system and transmission. Manoeuvring into tight parking spaces and navigating busy roads can result in scuffed alloys and dented or scraped bodywork while driving over potholes can throw out your suspension. FixMyCar can help you find affordable repairs and maintenance in Croydon for all these crucial components.
Urban driving in Croydon may reduce fuel efficiency due to increased braking and accelerating, which also places greater strain on your engine. Slow-moving traffic reduces the airflow through your car's radiator, making the cooling system work harder, so you should check the coolant level regularly and top up as needed. Your brakes and suspension will also likely wear down quickly as you navigate busy roads with potholes. Since driving in Croydon can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.
Croydon is in London's Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and Low Emission Zone (LEZ), both of which are designed to reduce air pollution in the city. The ULEZ operates 24 hours a day, every day except Christmas Day, and excludes the M25 motorway. It charges drivers of cars, vans, motorcycles and specialist vehicles that don't meet the emissions standards £12.50 a day. The LEZ also covers most of Greater London and specifically targets drivers of the most polluting diesel vehicles. It is enforced year-round, and the amount you pay varies. It usually ranges from £100-300 depending on your vehicle, and you can pay online. This guide explains everything you need to know about ULEZ and LEZ.
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.
