Is Your Car Prepared for its Holidays???

Is Your Car Prepared For It's Holidays???

This British summer is set to be a big and bright one with the World Cup approaching, summer sunshine giving us weekends of warmth and summer sales filling our suitcases with goodies ready for our holidays; Britain apears to be prepared for a few months of short wearing, sun cream slathering, ice cream eating summer! But how ready is your vehicle under the pressure of these much loved British Summers?

Whilst road users are packing their cars and lunch boxes ready for long weekends away, Mr Clutch has recognised the rising number of breakdowns occuring across the UK every summer. It is our aim to keep you safe on the roads and, with a number of super servicing deals and completely FREE no obligation checks available on your car, there really is no excuse to let your summer holidays be ruined by anything other than the rain!

Mr Clutch has issued a summer checklist for road users to pack this summer, keeping you and your family safe on the road.

  • Take a spare key! The AA receives hundreds of calls every summer from stranded drivers who've been swimming with electric keys in their pockets
  • High summer temperatures make tyres more susceptible to weak spots, causing punctures and blow-outs. Before setting off check for any cuts or bulges and tyre pressure!
  • If you are due a service, get it done before you set out on long journeys. Mr Clutch servicing starts from as little as £29.95.
  • Take regular breaks when driving long distances, fatigue is a leading cause of accidents.
  • Pack your sunglasses to block out bright, blinding sunlight.
  • If you are prone to hay fever, make sure you take non-drowsy medication before driving and keep windows and air vents closed to avoid pollen getting into the car!
  • Pack food, drinks and something to keep the kids amused to avoid 'Are We There Yet?!'.
  • Check fluid before leaving! Coolant, oil and windscreen washer can make a huge difference to your car maintenance if they are checked regularly! All of this can be checked for you by Mr Clutch under our ' Privilege Card Scheme' unlimitedly! Contact your local branch for more Privlege card benefits!
  • Most importantly, keep calm, keep your attention on the road and pull over if anything distracting arises; reading maps and breaking up the kids' arguments won't keep your drive steady!

Mr Clutch believes that safety on the road can be hugely improved with a little bit of care and attention; the first step to a safer drive is a safer car. Take a road trip to Mr Clutch before setting off this summer and have a FREE brake check or one of our competitively priced services to get you wherever you want to be, all year round.
