1. Check Your Lights
Make sure all your headlights, indicators, brake lights, and number plate lights are working. Replace any bulbs that have gone out.
2. Test Your Brakes
Listen for any unusual noises when braking and check for a firm, responsive pedal. If anything feels off, pop in and let us take a look.
3. Inspect Tyres
Check tyre tread depth (minimum 1.6mm), look for any damage, and ensure tyres are properly inflated.
4. Top Up Fluids
Check oil, brake fluid, screen wash, and coolant levels. Low fluids can lead to a failed MOT.
5. Clear Your Windscreen
Make sure your windscreen is free from cracks and your wipers are working well. Top up your washer fluid!
6. Secure Seatbelts & Mirrors
Ensure all seatbelts click in securely and mirrors are clean and properly adjusted.
7. Number Plates & Horn
Check your number plates are clean and secure, and give your horn a quick test.
