It’s called the long goodbye. 😒
Rapidly shrinking brain is how a doctor described it. I wouldn't wish Dementia or Alzheimer's on anyone. As the patient's brain slowly dies, they change physically and eventually forget who their loved ones are. Patients can eventually become bedridden, unable to move & unable to eat or drink.
There will be people who will scroll by this message because Dementia or Alzheimer's has not touched them. They may not know what it's like to have a loved one who has fought a battle against Dementia or Alzheimer's.
In an effort to raise awareness of this cruel disease, I would appreciate it if my friends could put this on your timeline.
Thank you xx β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œπŸ–€πŸ€πŸ€ŽπŸ’”

It has been a very emotional day! After 40 years of self employment I have just finished my final day at work. I would like to thank everyone of our valued customers for their continued support, without which we could not have managed. Also the friendships we have made, which have made you all seem like family. If I can be of any help in the future I would be happy to help if I can. Don't be afraid to contact me. Thank you all!

Removed this shock absorber from a vehicle that was utilising an MoT extension. It is coming in next week to have the other side changed as that is also corroded. Stay Safe.

The government Mot extension period has now ended. Please make sure that your MOT is up-to-date. Also if you are currently taking advantage of an extension, you need to make sure your vehicle is safe to use. We have had vehicles in with faults that would have failed an MoT inspection.

Stay Safe

Please be aware!! If you are taking advantage the MoT 6 months exemption on your vehicle.

You need to make sure your vehicle is in a safe condition to drive.

You can still be charged if you are driving a vehicle that is not in a roadworthy condition.

Call us if you would like a vehicle safety checked, or getting an MoT test carried out.

Stay safe!

Ian and Tim.

After having a classic mini in last week, thought I would post a picture of a mini that we modified, slightly, back in 1990!

Another classic today! Seems smaller than I remember.

With the impending easing of lockdown and others being given a return to work date. Here at Ian Callear Vehicle Repair we thought we would give you some helpful tips you can do at home to get your vehicle ready for your commute.

1. Battery
If your vehicle has not been used for a while your battery will start to lose its charge. You can counter this by starting your car and leaving it to idle for 15 to 20 minutes once a week. Remember to never leave your car unattended and only do this in an open space, never in a garage or somewhere with poor ventilation.

2. Tyres
Check the pressure and condition of all 4 tyres. You can check the pressure with a simple pressure device as shown here https://amzn.to/2X3L7QH or if you want to spend abit more https://amzn.to/3g309iD which has an analogue gauge aswell as a 12v compressor. Having the correct tyre pressure will help you increase your mpg so it's definitely worth checking.

3. Brakes
If your vehicle has been stationary for a long time your brakes can start to seize, we suggest when you're checking your battery also moving your car forwards and backwards slowly. Being careful to not try and move too quickly incase they have become seized and your car jolts forward/backwards if they become free.

4. MOT
The government have stated that
"Your car, van or motorcycle’s MOT expiry date will be extended by 6 months if it’s due on or after 30 March 2020 - but you must keep your vehicle safe to drive."

Keeping your vehicle safe to use on the road should be your highest priority, if you wish for us to check your car over in line with our usual MOT pre check process, we can do this whilst confirming to the governments social distancing guidelines. So please don't hesitate to get in touch.

We hope this has been informative for you and we look forward to seeing you all soon.

Stay safe.

Hi all, well this is the β€œNew normal”. We are back at work from Monday.

We can arrange vehicle collections and returns, to keep you off public transport and to prevent car sharing.

If you are capitalising on the MoT extension, please remember it is still important to keep your vehicle in a safe and roadworthy condition.

We can carry out a quick while you wait, safety check. (By appointment only).

Look forward to seeing you all. Stay Safe!

Regards Ian & Tim.
