Mercedes To The Rescue This Winter

WITH the winter weather already resulting in plunging temperatures, Mercedes is reminding us that it’s time to switch to winter tyres.

Although still a rare thing in the UK compared to other European countries, manufacturers and tyre companies are hoping that UK motorists will eventually embrace cold weather tyre technology.

When fitted, the tyres can help deliver shorter braking distances in low grip and cold conditions. Furthermore, the tyres are more durable than conventional items when the temperature drops.

This winter, Mercedes is offering owners complete wheel and tyre packages starting from £950 including VAT. Plus, the firm is also promoting a £99 Winter Driving Package, a hands-on learning experience at its purpose built all-weather track at Mercedes-Benz World, Weybridge.
