Thorough service may prevent classic car insurance claim

Vintage vehicle owners planning driving holidays in the UK may find organising a trip to their local garage first could prevent a breakdown and possibly even a car insurance claim this summer.

Kwik-Fit claimed more Brits are enjoying breaks in their home country these days and they tend to cover more miles than in the past.

It explained there has been a growth in the number of people visiting multiple locations in a single trip.

The company said this means it is more important than ever for motorists to check their autos are in good working order before leaving.

It suggested this could help avoid a breakdown.

A thorough service may also solve minor problems before they become the kind of faults that could lead to an accident.

Customer services director David White stated: "The Brit Hop generation is here - and at the centre of it is the car."

Previously, the company said it was important to get air conditioning units checked regularly.
