Car Maintenance
 

Can I bring my Audi and have it looked after in TV? Or do I need to buy a different type of car for easy maintenance. Who would look after it?

We have seen many Audis when we were there last month and we are bringing our Q5 when we move

There are several very good mechanics in the area, Wildwood Tire, Sumter Tire, and Accu-tech, if you are after an Audi dealer, A google maps search should give you closest one, and you can ask about that dealer.

I have a A3 that has been only looked after by the dealer so far. As long as people read what it needs and fix it properly I will be happy. I was hoping for something relatively close to Mallory. Where I am right now I have valet service - it came with the car.

Nearest Audi Service is Audi North Orlando in Sanford. They do excellent work. Highly recommend.

If I was going to be a full time resident, I would buy local, and not new. The standard of driving, and parking is to be polite, dire.
Get a used car from a local dealer and have no worries about a few dents, scratches, or maintainance.
PS. Get good Insurance Cover though!

I was thinking about buying a small footprint SUV or hatchback for local transportation. Any particular suggestions?

I use Accutech- for all the work on my Benz, the admirals Benz is handled by the dealer as its still under warranty--by the way if I was in an SUV or a truck I would haven killed yesterday, was on the TPK doing about 80 when I was cut off by a person texting- I was able to do an evasive maneuver that would have definitely caused a rollover if I was not in a station wagon

Robert @ Accutech can easily handle all the needs of any German car

Never a good combination for an accident with a person texting, and another speeding.

The Kia "Soul" is a very popular car here. Drivers don't have a bad thing to say about them. That will be my next car. I would go out of the area to buy though. Dealers in the area seem to prey on the elderly villagers.

Yes, Honda Fit. It's like a mini, mini-van. Great little car with fantastic gas mileage and lots of cargo space when the back seat is folded down. I'm on my second one.
