Get Ready for the Big Freeze with Halfords Autocentres -
November 2011
Motorists dreading the car woes brought on by freezing winter conditions are advised to take advantage of a cost-effective service bundle from Halfords Autocentres.
The £29.95 Winter Inspection offers a complete winter safety check for your vehicle with 12 vital checks including the battery, wipers, tyres, lights alternator, starter motor and antifreeze that will help ensure the smooth running of your car whatever the weather over next few months.
Also included in the package is Duxback window treatment which improves visibility in wet and icy weather (worth £24.95) and a winter essentials kit with trigger de-icer, concentrate screen wash, demist pad and scraper (worth £10).
The revolutionary Duxback protection treatment disperses water quickly from your windscreen, making driving in the rain safer and reducing levels of ice forming, meaning it won’t take as long to scrape ice from your car.
Bill Collins, Halfords Autocentres’ technical manager, said: “Preparing your vehicle for winter is essential for reducing the risk of a breakdown and increasing safety in dangerous driving conditions.
"Motorists need to take action now to avoid problems as temperatures drop. Batteries and starter motors in particular are common victims of freezing conditions and of course it's essential to ensure your car has sufficient quantities of antifreeze and your tyres have adequate tread.
“The images we saw last winter of stranded vehicles should provide a stark warning of how important it is to make the necessary checks before its too late. We urge all drivers to have a winter inspection to ensure their cars are prepared for the harsh conditions that are forecast.”
“The Winter Inspection is a cost-effective and practical way to ensure your vehicle is as safe as it can be, giving you peace of mind as temperatures drop.”
The UK’s leading garage network is also offering an anti freeze check and top up for £9.99 and a replacement battery, if required, with £15% off the current price.
Winter tyres, which increase the level of grip in cold, wet and icy conditions, are also available now from Halfords Autocentres.
