How to look after your car during lockdown
If you’re working from home during the COVID-19 lockdown, here are some tips to keep your car healthy and ready to face the rigours of everyday driving when we emerge from isolation.
Tyres
Try to rotate your wheels at least once a week, just to make sure they don’t deform from being in the same position all the time. Also check if
your tread depth is up to the required standard.
