Compare Land Rover summer check quotes from specialist garages

While Land Rover was founded in 1978, most people don't know that the Series I Land Rover actually predates the brand by 30 years, making it the second-oldest four-wheel drive vehicle in history. Land Rover is also closely linked to the Royal Family, providing the first bespoke ‘State Review' car in 1953.

The brand is associated with the spirit of adventure, and it's easy to see why; not only were its vehicles the first to cross the Darien Gap, but they were also supplied for "the Olympics of 4x4" - a competition in which teams of two would drive hundreds of kilometres, tackling the most challenging terrain, competing for a win in Land Rover cars.

From staycations to road trips abroad, summer can be a busy time, and the last thing you need is for your car to break down. That's where a summer health check can help - it's a great way to ensure your car is safe for the season ahead.

It involves a thorough inspection of your car's fluids and key components, including the battery, windscreen, lights, wipers, tyres and brakes.

The technician will talk you through any areas that require maintenance, identifying potential problems before they become serious. That's why booking a summer check can save you money as well as giving you extra peace of mind.

Even if you're a pro at car maintenance - and good for you if you are! - the opinion of an expert mechanic can be invaluable for alleviating any niggling doubts about the safety and condition of your vehicle.
