72% of Plymouth households have access to a car or van. The A38 dual carriageway, known as "The Parkway," runs from east to west of the city, representing the boundary between the old parts and the newly developed areas. Driving in Plymouth is relatively easy, but Crownhill Junction can be challenging for people unfamiliar with the area because it is a modified Cloverleaf junction, which is very unusual. Bus services are mainly provided by Stagecoach South West and Plymouth Citybus.
Driving in cities like Plymouth 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 Plymouth for all these crucial components.
Since Plymouth 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 Plymouth.
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.
