The Great British weather is still a bit erratic – double digits one day and a frost the next, but the forecast shows snow in some places and plummeting temperatures across much of the UK.
Although your brand new lease car will be fit and ready for the roads there are some day-to-day maintenance tasks that you can tend to keep you safe.
- A dirty windscreen makes it harder to see, especially when driving in the dark with oncoming headlights. Keep it nice and clean and check your screen wash levels regularly.
- Make sure your lights are nice and clean too - there is a lot of muck on the roads at this time of year and your lights must be kept clean so they are fully functional. A quick wipe every so often will suffice.
- At this time of year always have at least a quarter of a tank of fuel in case of emergencies and delays. It’s a good idea to keep some snacks and a bottle of water in the car too, along with blankets and a spare jumper – just in case snow hits and you get stranded.
Happy motoring!
