Wake Up Shropshire!

Woo Hoo! The winter slumber is finally over.... It's all good for the next few months and time to get outside.

Soooo. It's time to give the car and good once over! A long winter with salted roads every other day is going to do your pride and joy no favours whatsoever. It all needs washing away with a long jet wash with clean fresh water all over (and under too).

Months of having the heaters on will mean your windscreen will have a thick layer of road grime and a film on it which is best removed using newspaper and window cleaner (and plenty of elbow grease) but the result is often quite incredible!

Check oil and water/coolant too. The winter is a strain but engines like to run cooler rather than hot so summer can really cause issues.

And finally, don't forget to get a really good look at your tyres up close and personal looking for low tread, cracking/perishing and splits/bulges. Warm conditions mean we can all drive a little quicker and with better grip but just be careful not to push them too far. A hot spell followed by rain can leave surfaces as treacherous as ice!!

And remember, you don't have to waste the few summer days we're given each year at a tyre centre! Stick at home in the garden - play golf - visit the in-laws (maybe!). Whatever you'd rather be doing, we can meet you there instead. Easy.
