Hornchurch is in the Borough of Havering, where people drive over a billion miles each year. It is just over 15 miles northeast of Charing Cross, served primarily by the A127, which passes to the north, and the A124. There are many bus routes in Hornchurch (operated by London Buses) and two Overground stations: Emerson Park and Harold Wood. Additionally, the town has several tube stations. Hornchurch falls inside London's Low Emission Zone; some larger vehicles may incur a charge.
Urban driving in Hornchurch 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 Hornchurch can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.
Hornchurch 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.
It's important to carry out regular car maintenance to avoid MOT failure - checking and replacing your engine oil, coolant, lights and tyres as necessary.
Many drivers take this a step further and ask, "can I get a pre-MOT check on my car?". The answer is yes, you can! It's possible to do your own checks before an MOT, but it may give you extra peace of mind if a trained technician does them for you, which is one of the best ways of avoiding MOT failure.
By conducting a thorough visual inspection of your vehicle, you can detect problems early and get them fixed before your MOT, increasing the chance of a first-time pass.
MOT pre-checks should include the operation of all lights, wipers, washers, seat belts, doors, mirrors, the horn, number plates, bodywork, mirrors and wheels, and a visual inspection of the brakes, suspension, steering and fuel system.
