Rubber

Most important that you make sure your tires are OK Check the tire is inflated to the recomended pressure in your manual (and remember to adjust if you are carrying a heavy load - Christmas pressies??) Check the tread depth (1.6mm on the cenrtal 3/4) and there are no cuts or bulges in the tyre Dont forget your window wipers as well, a clear view out of your windscreen is very important and visit motoskool.co.uk for driving instructors in the Paisley and Renfrewshire area

Power

First is of course Petrol Check you have enough petrol before you make a trip, if you are traveling a long distance especially in the winter make sure you have plenty extra too just incase Two years ago I was making a trip from Paisley to north of Inverness, this is a trip that usually takes about 3 hours, 2 hours into the trip the snow started and the road was at a crawl. Nowhere to stop just nose to tail cars. The trip ended up taking 6 hours and boy was I glad we all had enough petrol, just one car running out and the road would have been totaly blocked Remember if you are looking for a driving instructor in Paisley and Renfrewshire check out motoskooL.co.uk where we will still be running our famous 4 hours for £20 (terms apply) into 2012
