There are a number of benefits to getting your car serviced regularly. It’s not a legal requirement, but servicing your car can act as a type of preventative maintenance. It can save you a lot of money in the long run! So why service your car? Today we discuss some of the top reasons.

Improve safety

Having your car serviced regularly can help to identify any potential issues before they become major problems. Your mechanic will carry out a number of essential vehicle checks, such as checking your brakes and suspension. This is especially important as your car gets older and if you clock up a lot of kilometers each year. Ensuring your vehicle has been checked thoroughly means your car is likely to be safer on the road. Getting a full service of your car regularly should also ensure it’s in really good shape for your NCT.

Save costs

If you service your car regularly, you’re more likely to save money in the long run. Having your air and oil filters changed during a service can greatly improve engine and fuel efficiency. This means you could spend less on fuel and get more for your money. Servicing your car can also identify potential issues before they become expensive problems. Having to replace an essential component of your vehicle following a service is often far less expensive than if you were to break down as a result of a problem. Your mechanic will always check your oil to see if it needs to be replaced. If your vehicle didn’t have sufficient oil or if it needed to be changed, you could end up causing major damage to your engine. This can be a very costly exercise, and is one of the key reasons why you should service your car regularly.
