Fuel prices got you feeling the pinch?
⛽️💸
​Small changes in how you manage your car can lead to big savings at the pump. Whether you’re a daily commuter or heading off on a road trip, these four simple habits will help you go further for less:
​1️⃣
Check your tyre pressure: Low tyres create "rolling resistance," making your engine work harder. Keep them pumped to the right PSI!
2️⃣
Accelerate smoothly: Avoid heavy feet. Gentle acceleration and braking are the keys to fuel efficiency.
3️⃣
Fresh air over A/C: Driving under 80kms, skip the aircon and crack a window to take the pressure off your engine.
4️⃣
Declutter the boot: Your car isn't a storage unit! The more weight you carry, the more fuel you burn.

5 tips for your first car.
👩‍🔧
Make sure your p plates are visible. If they are behind the number plate, you could get fined
🌿
The car freshener hanging from the rear view mirror could also cost you a fine. Use a solid one instead.
⛑️
Curate your own first aid kit and pop it into the glove box.
🚘
Pop a spare set of P plates into your door pocket

And personalise your ride by adding some bling!
