Scarborough is the largest seaside town in North Yorkshire and the largest holiday resort on the Yorkshire Coast, so there is often heavy traffic during the summer. It is served by the A64 road to Malton and Tadcaster, the A165 to Bridlington, the A170 to Pickering and the A171 to Whitby. Scarborough railway station is a Grade II listed building in Westborough, an eastern terminus of the North TransPennine route. Arriva and East Yorkshire Buses operate most bus routes.

Since Scarborough is on the coast, cars in this area may experience a higher level of corrosion on key components, requiring them to be replaced more often. The bodywork starts to rust first; other parts most at risk include the brake callipers, nuts, and bolts. You can help to prevent this from happening by regularly washing your car, especially after a trip to the beach. Since rust spreads and eats away at metal components, it's best to get it fixed sooner rather than later. FixMyCar can help you find a bodywork specialist near Scarborough.

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.
