Your winter car survival kit
08/12/2021 Useful Information All News
We are sure by now everybody saw the news where customers at a pub in Yorkshire were stuck there for a number of days after the bad weather hit.
This got us thinking: If things did go wrong (and yes, the above is extreme), how much essential kit do we actually have in our cars if we were to breakdown this winter?
With that in mind, we thought we'd put together a quick winter survival kit for your vehicle - some of these items could be vital this year, especially if you were to break down or get stuck in heavy traffic: If you don't already have these, it might just be worth purchasing them and putting to one side in your vehicle (just in case!):
- Blanket
- Thick gloves
- First Aid Kit
- Boots
- Spare winter clothing
- Torch (and a few spare batteries)
- Non-perishable snacks
- Bottle of Water
- First Aid Kit
- Extra washer fluid
- Warning tringle- newer cars will have these as standard so please check your boot
Safe driving.

Jigsaw Finance Limited and associated trading styles is a Credit Broker not a lender and is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 679612). We work with a limited panel of lenders, who may offer different interest rates and charges. We are only able to offer finance products from these providers. Our lender selection process is structured to balance lender efficiencies with customer approval rates. We operate on a non-advised basis, meaning we do not provide financial advice or make recommendations. Instead, we explain key features of available finance products, and you decide whether the product is suitable for you.
We do not charge you a fee for our service; instead we receive a commission payment from lenders for arranging finance on your behalf. The commission we receive may vary depending on the lender and product. The commission we receive from the lender and pay to the introducer impacts the amount you pay.
As a credit broker with a limited panel of preferred credit providers from whom we receive commission, Jigsaw is not impartial and we may be influenced by the amount of commission we earn. Although we receive commission from lenders, we aim to provide finance solutions that meet our customers' needs.
The amount earned by Jigsaw and the motor retailer including how it has been calculated will be disclosed prior to signing your agreement. Full details of this can be found in our Initial Disclosure Document.
If you have any questions about how we are paid or how we select lenders, please ask before proceeding.
