Ask garages to quote for your car

For servicing, MOTs and repairs. Compare any quotes, then decide.

Next, you’ll choose the job from our list or describe it in your own words.

  • Free to post a job
  • No obligation to accept a quote
  • Only quoting garages see your phone number

How it works

Describe the job. Garages can quote for it.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us about the car and the job

    Enter your registration and we’ll look up your car. Choose the job from our list, or describe the problem. You’ll need a free account to post the job.

  2. Step 2

    Garages choose whether to quote

    Your job is visible to garages on Matchanic. Those that quote set their own price. We email you when a quote arrives.

  3. Step 3

    Compare and choose

    Look through the quotes and message a garage if you have a question. When you’re ready, accept the one you want.

Why it’s fair

Garages quote. You decide.

  • See the price before you agree

    Each quote shows the garage’s name and its price for the job, and can list what the price includes. A garage can change its quote until you accept one.

  • Know who’s quoting

    Every quote links to the garage’s profile. There you’ll find what it says about itself, its address if it has added one, and any reviews from other Matchanic customers.

  • Free, with no obligation

    It costs nothing to post a job or read quotes. If you accept one, you pay the garage directly, not Matchanic.

  • What garages see

    Garages see your name, your car and your postcode. We never ask for your full address.

    Only garages that quote can see your phone number, so they can call you about the work. Once you accept a quote, the others can no longer look up your number on Matchanic.

Jobs you can post

From an MOT to a new clutch

When you post, choose the job from our list or describe it in your own words. These pages explain what each kind of job covers.

Launching in Surrey

Matchanic is starting in Surrey: Guildford, Woking, Epsom, Redhill, Reigate, Camberley, Farnham, Staines-upon-Thames, Leatherhead, Dorking and the towns around them. You can post with any full UK postcode our map can place. We’re new, so there may be few or no garages on Matchanic near the car yet, in Surrey or anywhere else.
