The oldest motor race in the UK, Brighton Speed Trials, happens each year along Madeira Drive, and thousands of spectators flock to the city to watch cars and motorcycles take on the quarter-mile sprint. If you need somewhere to park, the largest car parks are on King Street, London Road and Churchill Square. Alternatively, Brighton's buses are run by The Brighton & Hove Bus Company, and the city has roughly 1,363 bus stops.

A Low Emission Zone (LEZ) is in operation in Brighton. It was introduced in 2008 and covers most of Greater London, including some sections of the M1 and M4 but excluding the M25. The purpose of the LEZ is to discourage the most polluting diesel vehicles from driving in London. Unlike the ULEZ, which doesn't operate on Christmas Day, this zone is enforced all year round. How much you pay depends on your vehicle - it can be between £100-300. Find out more in this guide.

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

Since Brighton 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 Brighton.

Volkswagen is a staple of British roads - popular, stylish and reliable - so it's no wonder it was the UK's best-selling car brand in 2021 and 2022. However, the brand's global popularity began much earlier with the original Volkswagen Beetle, one of the best-selling cars of the entire 20th century, with over 21.5 million vehicles sold. And while classic VW models like the Golf continue to dominate sales, newer editions like the all-electric ID. Buzz are also causing a stir. At the 2023 WhatCar? Awards, the Buzz was crowned both 'Large Electric Car of the Year' and overall 'Car of the Year'. Find out how much servicing costs for a Volkswagen in this guide.
