Regular Inspections
To keep your classic sports car in peak condition, regular inspections are crucial. This ensures any potential issues are identified early, preventing costly repairs and maintaining optimal performance.
Engine Checks
Conducting regular engine checks is essential. Ensure the oil is changed frequently, and the engine is clean and free from leaks. Brands like Ferrari and Lamborghini require meticulous care to maintain their high performance.
Brake Maintenance
Brakes are vital for safety and performance. Regularly inspect the brake pads and discs, and replace them if worn. This is especially important for high-performance models like the Porsche 911 and Aston Martin Vantage.
Proper Storage Techniques
How you store your classic sports car significantly impacts its longevity. Here are some tips to ensure your vehicle remains in pristine condition.
Indoor Storage
Whenever possible, store your car indoors to protect it from the elements. A climate-controlled garage is ideal, particularly for luxury vehicles like the Rolls Royce or Bentley.
Covering Your Car
Use a high-quality car cover to shield your vehicle from dust and potential scratches. This is especially important for our range of stretch limousines, including the Hummer and American Lincoln Town Car.
Routine Cleaning and Detailing
Keeping your car clean not only maintains its aesthetic appeal but also prevents long-term damage. Here are some key cleaning tips.
Exterior Care
Regularly wash and wax your car to protect the paintwork. This is crucial for models like the Mercedes S Class and Jaguar E-Type, ensuring they continue to turn heads.
Interior Upkeep
Don't neglect the interior. Use appropriate cleaners for leather or fabric seats and keep the dashboard and controls dust-free. This is essential for maintaining the luxurious feel of vehicles like the Maybach and Lexus.
Tyre Maintenance
Tyres are the only part of the car that touches the road, so their maintenance is critical.
Checking Tyre Pressure
Ensure your tyres are inflated to the manufacturer's recommended pressure. This is particularly important for high-performance vehicles like the Lamborghini Huracan and Aston Martin DB11.
Tyre Rotation
Regularly rotate your tyres to ensure even wear. This extends their lifespan and maintains handling, especially for models like the Ferrari 488 and Porsche Cayman.
