As a port city in the northeast of Scotland, Aberdeen sees a lot of extreme weather fluctuations as well as heavy industrial traffic. Both can have major impacts on the condition of your car, with snow and rainfall creating moisture on the roads and putting greater strain on your tyres, and growing congestion leading to higher levels of wear and tear for your brakes. Based on our data, most of the cars we’ve handled in Aberdeen have failed their MOT due to scored and pitted brakes, tyres worn past the legal limit, damaged number plates and corroded sub-frames, so it’s no surprise that demand for reliable car breakers has increased in the area.
