WhoCanFixMyCar.com, the car servicing and repair comparison business used by thousands of drivers every week, has established itself among UK motorists looking for local garage prices and reviews.
Recently the site reached the latest in a series of recent landmarks when its 7,000th garage – Nick Kerner 4 Wheel Drive Ltd in Winkfield – came on board.
More and more drivers are turning to the web to compare garage pricing and reviews, and, after decades of reliance on local word of mouth and traditional, offline advertising, ever more garage businesses are focusing their efforts on building their profile, and reputation, online.
Although mechanical repairs (clutches, cambelts, servicing, brakes and exhausts) are WhoCanFixMyCar.com’s ‘heartland’, drivers use the site to seek out specialists for a wide range of issues and special requests.
As a result, WhoCanFixMyCar.com’s garage profile has evolved to take advantage of that rich variety of work.
While the majority of members are ‘traditional’ independent garages, also in the mix are several hundred mobile mechanics, cosmetic and SMART repairers, bodyshops, transmission specialists, auto electricians and brand specialists.
