Your winter car survival kit
08/12/2021 Useful Information All News
We are sure by now everybody saw the news where customers at a pub in Yorkshire were stuck there for a number of days after the bad weather hit.
This got us thinking: If things did go wrong (and yes, the above is extreme), how much essential kit do we actually have in our cars if we were to breakdown this winter?
With that in mind, we thought we'd put together a quick winter survival kit for your vehicle - some of these items could be vital this year, especially if you were to break down or get stuck in heavy traffic: If you don't already have these, it might just be worth purchasing them and putting to one side in your vehicle (just in case!):
- Blanket
- Thick gloves
- First Aid Kit
- Boots
- Spare winter clothing
- Torch (and a few spare batteries)
- Non-perishable snacks
- Bottle of Water
- First Aid Kit
- Extra washer fluid
- Warning tringle- newer cars will have these as standard so please check your boot
Safe driving.

Jigsaw Finance Limited is a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a limited number of lenders and their finance products. We are not an independent financial advisor; we will provide details of products available, but no advice or recommendation will be made. You must decide whether the finance product is right for you.
We will receive a commission payment from the lender/finance provider if you decide to enter into an agreement with them. The commission payment received is for the introduction and work in facilitating and arranging the finance for you and is a one-off payment from the lender to Jigsaw. The calculation of this commission is based either on a fixed fee or a percentage of the amount you borrow, this is determined and may vary by the commercial agreement Jigsaw has with the lender. We may work with just one lender or a limited selection of lenders when arranging finance. As a Credit Broker, we may also have other commercial arrangements with a lender which do not influence the terms of your finance agreement. We may share some of this commission with the motor retailer.
The amount of commission will be made available to you before signing your finance documents.
All the lenders that we work with pay commissions at different rates, however, the commission received does not affect the amount you will pay under your finance agreement. Our aim is to secure finance for you at the lowest interest rate available from our panel of lenders. Finance may be available from other providers outside of our panel, and you should consider your options before entering into an agreement, we are not able to provide impartial recommendation.
