Sunderland is just 14 miles from Newcastle, roughly a 30-minute drive. In the late 20th century, the city became an automotive building centre, and there is still a highly successful manufacturing plant owned by Nissan, which has produced over 10.5 million vehicles. The busiest road in the Sunderland area is the A19, a dual-carriageway that runs north to south, providing access to the Tyne Tunnel. Most bus services in the area are run by Go North East, Stagecoach and Arriva.

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

Since Sunderland 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 Sunderland.

Booking a vehicle respray is an excellent way to restore your car's appearance and eliminate unsightly scratches. A car respray can be messy, so using a workshop with a specifically designated respray area is essential for ensuring quality.

First, the mechanic will clean the car before either sanding or entirely stripping the existing paint. All windows, tyres and trimmings will then be covered so they don't get paint on them. You could do this at home, but it may become more expensive, and the outcome will likely be poor unless you're a professional. Before deciding whether to do it yourself, you should look for the best car full body respray quote online.

It's also possible to get one or two panels resprayed instead of the whole car. For example, you could book a car bumper respray or a car bonnet respray, which will cost less money.
