Tottenham is in London's Ultra Low Emission Zone. As you'd expect, the town has a few public charging stations for electric vehicles, including one on High Road and another on Grasmere Road. The main road through Tottenham is the A10, which travels north to the M11 just outside Cambridge and south into central London. If you need public transport, the Victoria Line of the London Underground passes through the town, and Tottenham Hale bus station is on Hale Road.

Urban driving in Tottenham 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 Tottenham can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.

Tottenham 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.
