Depending on what type of travel you are going to be doing, there are many different things you will need to plan for and consider. If you are travelling by car on a long distance journey, preparation is the key. You may easily remember to think about refreshments, entertainment and scheduled breaks, but have you fully considered the preparation of the vehicle itself?

Before taking any long car journey you should always check your tyres and in a good condition and have the correct pressure in, window washers are full, oil is at the correct level and generally the car is fit to be driven. If you are in doubt about any of these things you may want to take the car to a local garage in advance (allowing plenty of time) in case there needs to be any work carried out meaning the vehicle will be off the road for a few days.
