Whitley Bay is connected to Newcastle, around ten miles away, by the A193. Other A roads in the town include the A192, which travels north to Morpeth and south to North Shields, and the A191, which heads towards the A19. Whitley Bay often hosts a classic car show featuring hundreds of vehicles in September. Go North East and Arriva operate most bus services in the area, and the Tyne and Wear Metro provides an easy way to get to Newcastle.

Since Whitley Bay 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 Whitley Bay.

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.
