THERE’S definitely an autumn feel in the air, with the shorter days and colder mornings bringing the first frost scrapes – but is your van prepared for the winter?

Well Volkswagen commercial vehicle owners can remove that worry, by booking their vehicle into the local Van Centre for a VW Winter Health Check.

This comprehensive Express Visual Check covers 29 points, including key areas such as the battery, brake pads, exhaust and steering and is available until February 2016 priced at £10.

As an added bonus, customers who have the check will also receive a Winter Care kit worth £21.50 including essentials such as a de-icer, an ice scraper and screen wash.

Trevor Hodgson-Phillips, head of service and parts at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles UK, commented: “The expertise and aftercare packages available from the Volkswagen Van Centre network are designed to deliver peace-of-mind to our customers.

“We are providing tyre checks and all over vehicle checks at our Van Centres as a preventative measure to help keep our customers safe on the roads this winter.”

You can arrange a winter check by contacting your local Volkswagen Van Centre or visit www.volkswagen-vans.co.uk.
