Spring is Here!

Rejoice, sun-lovers! The coldest months of the year are behind us. While Spring can still have a sting in the tail, the sad and oppressive months of winter are now gone. Enjoy the first rays of warm sunshine, and start dreaming of the beach!  Let us help you prepare your car for Spring.

A Change in the Weather

With the turn of the season comes an increasingly drastic change in the weather. The cold mornings and bleak nights begin to be replaced by familiar sights and sounds; birdsong, cherry blossom and green leaves. Even if you’re a person who prefers winter, by this point Spring is usually welcome!

If however you’ve had enough of the dreary winter weather, and have been longing to get out and explore the world again, it pays to have your means of transportation up to scratch. Spring has some beautiful days, but can also be a very changeable season, with lots of unexpected switches in conditions.

Stay on Top of Maintenance

While you can afford to worry less about low temperatures, black ice and blizzards, spring still has some challenges when it comes to weather. Heavy rain can come with little warning, and the cold grip of winter hasn’t been entirely loosened yet, with cold mornings and nights remaining a challenge.

A Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can help to keep your journey safe - it will inform you immediately if any of your four tyres loses pressure. Loss of tyre pressure can result in poor handling, less responsive braking, and decreased fuel economy. This way you won’t even have to get down on your hands and knees to check! Stay out of the spring mud with this clever and discreet sensor system, and ensure safe handling in all conditions.

Prioritise Entertainment

You may find yourself with the urge to get out on the road again, to see something new, or maybe to visit somewhere that bad weather simply won’t allow for. This is all eminently possible again, without the risk of encountering the full wrath of winter conditions. However long or short your journey though, we think it’s important that you’re not bored out of your mind on it!

If you do find yourself bored to tears on long drives, now might be the perfect time to think about upgrading your car stereo. If you’re fortunate enough to drive a Mercedes-Benz, this QM Series stereo may be the perfect thing. With an outstanding anti-glare screen, it can be used effortlessly even in the bright, low sunshine of spring. The TMA105S is a Universal Double DIN unit with built-in international 4G, along with a huge hard drive for storing your apps and files, perfect for handling multiple things at once.

If you have passengers you need to entertain, why not try a stylish roof-mounted screen? The Android CM125A is based on the first-ever Android platform for the purpose, and has an incredible array of features. The ultrathin design and incredible screen definition means it looks good whether you’re using it or not, and the connectivity ensures that almost any media can be played. Your backseat passengers will always enjoy the ride!

Stay Connected

While it can be fun to take the car out on the road, for many of us, a drive means a commute. In the past, this meant you were out of the game for as long as your journey took. With XTRONS’ range of stereos however, and their built-in 4G and Wi-Fi, you can make sure you’re able to stay on top of developments at your place of work.

You can make your car into a mobile office, stream music and video into your cab, and access DAB+ radio services with ease. Add in the easy screen-mirroring, and you’re all set up to use all of your phone’s capabilities easily.
