With all of the current day to day worries and struggles, have you forgotten that your car tax is due soon ? We all know how simple it is to forget these little things in the current circumstances.

Any motorist caught driving without it could be fined up to £1,000 and that really is not what anyone needs right now.

Did you know you can tax your vehicle online ? There is no need for an unnecessary trip to the Post Office when you can do it all online.

All you have to do is head over to the link below on the Gov.co.uk website:

Have you ever noticed your tyres wearing more on one side than the other ? Perhaps your car feels as if it pulls to one side ? Or maybe your steering wheel isn’t straight ?

These are all possible symptoms of misalignment and often lead to higher running costs as your tyres need replacing sooner or your fuel bills will be increased.

Misalignment can occur easily. Hitting a kerb, driving over a pothole, or simple wear and tear can all lead to your car suffering from misalignment.

By letting us check your alignment regularly you can be confident that these negative effects are minimised and your car remains in the best possible condition.
