Most of the long-range weather forecasts for the UK broadly agree with a recently published Met Office blog, predicting a higher-than-normal incidence of Northerly airflows and an

‘…increasing the potential for cold snaps with some threat of snow and ice…’

With this in mind we thought we’d remind you of our excellent range of winter motoring essentials. Typically demand for these products shoots up as cold snaps bite. Being ahead of the game and stocking up on the essentials can pay dividends.

Our winter range covers products across many brands but for the sake of this post we thought we’d focus on our increasingly popular NAPA WINTER ESSENTIALS, that include, cables, antifreeze, screen wash, de-icing products and some handy winter kits. Read on for more details of everything you need to keep you safe and rolling as temperatures drop.

De Icing Sprays and Scrapers

It’s important that you maintain the best possible visibility before every journey, especially on those icy mornings.  To help you do this quickly, effectively and without damaging your glass we stock…
