Driving in Cardiff
The capital of Wales since only 1955, Cardiff has emerged in recent decades as a lively, stylish, self-assured and cosmopolitan city offering culture, history and nightlife as well as the beauty and tranquillity of nearby coastal and rural areas.
Sitting between an ancient fort and a contemporary waterfront, Cardiff is a compact city whose architectural delights can easily be reached on foot. It’s not just the rugby that draws in the crowds, when the weekend arrives the city is thronged with shoppers at the Hayes, party-goers at the pubs and clubs and a buzzing atmosphere.
The Wales Millennium Centre, The Motorpoint Arena and the pretty Edwardian New Theatre are the places to enjoy internationally renowned theatre, dance, opera and concerts. It’s easy to lose a few hours in The National Museum of Cardiff or soaking up the past at Cardiff Castle and Castell Coch.
Cardiff offers a diversity of shopping experiences, from the historic covered market to the glass-canopied Victorian and Edwardian shopping arcades, as well as brand new shopping centres in the pedestrianised town centre.
If you feel the need to get physical after sitting in a car for hours then Cardiff’s Olympic swimming pool, ice rink and white water rafting at the International Sports Village will satisfy all sporting tastes.
As cities go, Cardiff is an easy place to drive around but most of the central city streets between Westgate St, Castle St and St David's are closed to traffic. There is free street parking in the suburbs and Pontcanna's Cathedral Road has unrestricted parking, but it can be tricky finding an empty spot during working hours. St David's has 2000 parking spaces above the shopping centre, with an additional 550 below John Lewis.
Cardiff is accessed from junctions 29 to 34 on the M4, which connects the city to Newport, Bristol, Bath, Swindon and Reading in the east terminating at London, and Bridgend, Swansea, and Llanelli in the west, terminating near Carmarthen.
FAQs
What is a Car Service?
A car service is a routine health check for your vehicle, completed by a local garage. A mechanic inspects various parts of your car, checking for excessive wear and tear and recommending repairs where needed.
A car service is the best way to keep your car in good condition and helps to avoid expensive repairs and breakdowns. Some of the items assessed in a car service are:
- Tyres
- Oil
- Filter
- Brakes
- Timing Belt
- Windscreen Wipers
- Exhaust
- Suspension
- Steering System
How Long Does A Car Service Take?
Each car service takes a different length of time, due to the differing numbers of checks. On average, a car service takes:
- Around 1 and 1/2 hours for an interim service
- Around 3 hours for a full service
- Around 4 hours or longer for a major service
If the mechanic finds extra faults, the repair time will take longer.
How Often Should I Book a Car Service in Cardiff?
You should always follow the service intervals specified in your vehicle handbook. Most manufacturers recommend booking a full service every 12 months or 12,000 miles - whichever comes first. They may also recommend booking interim and major services, as well as oil and filter changes, at other intervals.
The frequency of servicing depends on two factors:
- Your driving style
- Your yearly mileage
If you are an aggressive driver or you travel more than 25,000 miles a year, you may wish to service your car more often. Similarly, if your car sits around for long periods of time, you may wish to service it more often to protect it against the negative effects of disuse.
We recommend servicing your car at the following intervals:
- Interim Service every 6 months or 6,000 miles (if you have a high yearly mileage)
- Full Service every 12 months or 12,000 miles
- Major Service every 24 months or 24,000 miles
What Are the Benefits of a Mobile Car Service?
Convenience - Rather than having to find time to take your car to a garage and then trying to keep your life on track without it, you can have your car service completed at a location that works best for you. This could be your driveway or a car park at work during your normal day. This helps you avoid disruption.
Flexibility - You may be able to book a mobile car service on a weekend, evening or even overnight, depending on the mobile mechanics in your area. If your schedule doesn’t really accommodate servicing at a traditional garage, this can make your life easier.
Transparency - You get to see what is happening during your mobile car service at all times. This makes it easier to trust the quality of the work and gives you the peace of mind that all the checks have been completed to the highest standard.
Cheaper - A mobile car service involves less overhead costs and expenses, so they are often at least competitively priced against, if not cheaper than most local garages.
If you think a mobile car service will benefit you, enter your vehicle reg and postcode to compare instant prices from mobile mechanics near you.
