Derby has strong links with the car industry and is a major city for advanced transport manufacturing; Rolls-Royce and Toyota have factories in the area. It is one of the cheapest cities in the UK, and it has extensive transport links to other areas of the country via the M1. It's a good idea to drive carefully while you're in the area because, in some parts of Derbyshire, as many as one in ten drivers have penalty points on their licence.

Driving in cities like Derby 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 Derby for all these crucial components.

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.
