Compare Nissan repair quotes from specialist garages in Inverness

Scotland's so-called Route 66, the North Coast 500, runs to and from Inverness, offering one of the most incredible road trips in the UK. The city is relatively small and has no congestion charges, but some of its central roads are narrow, making them difficult to drive down. Getting around without a car is easy, thanks to the regular bus services operated by Stagecoach. You can find the bus station at Farraline Park via Margaret Street and Academy Street.

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

Since Inverness 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 Inverness.

Nissan is one of the most popular car makers in the world, but few people know it also used to make spacecraft engines. The Lambda 4S-5, an experimental carrier rocket, was developed by Nissan; in 1970, it launched Japan's first satellite into space. Over the years, the brand has bolstered its success by entering a strategic alliance with Renault, a French manufacturer, and Mitsubishi, also based in Japan. The fastest car by Nissan is the GT-R, which can do 0-60 in less than three seconds - a genuinely eye-watering speed.
