Motorists go online to find repairers
New research has found that motorists are in greater numbers going online to find someone to repair or service their vehicles.
Garage lead generator site autoadvisor.co.uk has seen an 88% increase in traffic during lockdown.
With a 70% drop in car journeys at the height of the lockdown, combined with an MOT extension and dealerships closing, motorists have decided to go online and seek support to help keep their vehicle on the road.
Alex Taylor, founder of AutoAdvisor.co.uk, said: “We’ve seen the biggest rise in traffic to the site in the past four months and, with dealerships closing, it has meant more business and demand for independent garages.”
