We've all been in that awkward and frustrating, yet essential situation of having to take the car to the garage for a service, or MOT or whatever. It's a costly exercise isn't it.
Well imagine if you were in a situation where you could get help to do some (maybe all?) of the work yourself. What a great idea I hear you say - and with the help of Car Mechanic Tips it can now become a money saving reality!
Just think, you could go to Halfords, Tooled-Up or even Tyre Shopper to get the parts and spares you need, then get the car maintenance information you need from the website and hey presto - you've just become your very own garage.
Obviously we'd recommend you go to a local garage for major jobs, but for routine car maintenance work such as replacing wiper blades, topping up the oil, checking your tyres, changing the air filter, etc then you can do these yourself (and save yourself the £45 + VAT an hour the garage would charge you!).
If saving money isn't high on your list of priorities, then you might want to share some top tips for safer driving with some people you know instead - like I did with my teenage son!

DIY House Clearance and Skip Hire
With times being hard, why pay thousands to move home when you can spruce up your current house than with a bit of a clearout and some good old DIY.
First things first though, you're going to need tools and some DIY products and with over 70,000 products, DIY Tools is one of the largest independent online DIY Stores in the UK - an ideal starting place! From Power Tools to Wheelbarrows, Furniture to Woodworking Benches.
DIY Tools stock an extensive range of products for DIY, the home and garden including the complete ranges of top brands at very competitive prices.
Once you've got your tools and household products sorted, then it's time to sort out some cheap skip hire ready for your house clearance.
If all that sounds like too much work and hassle, then you could always consider a house swap! Home swapping, as its called, is the holiday alternative where "You stay in my home while I stay in yours".
Home Exchange Now is the largest community of home swappers in the world with over 40,000 Members in 146 countries and 250,000 exchanges per year.
With home exchange, other than the cost of getting there, a holiday anywhere in the world doesn’t have to cost any more than staying at home. With no hotel bills, the benefit of free accommodation and the ability to exchange everything from cars and bicycles to boats and skis, Home Exchange has become the best way to experience a destination like a local, not a visitor. That could mean savings of thousands of Pounds!
Weekend home exchange holidays are a fast growing trend. It’s more comfortable than a hotel and you get to experience an area as a local, not a tourist. You also get to shop at local markets and to receive personal recommendations from exchange partners and neighbours of places to go, things to see and restaurants to try.
We're sure you'll have lots of fun whether you decide the DIY and Skip Hire route or a nice simple house swap.
