Industry experts Bosch are offering a free Winter Check through its Car Service network ahead of the cold weather.

Available at Bosch Car Service garages across the country, the 28-point inspection includes brakes, tyres, and headlights and is carried out by fully trained Bosch technicians who work to the highest standard and a code of conduct that is fully approved by the Office of Fair Trading.

The free Winter Check can be booked by contacting your local Bosch Car Service garage directly or using Bosch's Online Service Booking at www.boschcarservice.co.uk/winter

From 29th October to the 31st January users can also enter to win a Bosch Gold Annual Service for the life of your car.
