In a world of uncertainty, It's good to know
there's something you can rely on...

Hello and welcome back, we are fully open
again, we hope you and your family are safe
and well. As many of you will be aware we
remained open during the November lock down,
predominantly for Servicing and Parts but as part
of the governments measures we had to shut the
showroom to customers wishing to view cars so
have operated with a reduced sales team who
concentrated on selling cars using our website
and telephone, etc, “click and collect”, although
this has been successful it will never replace
physically inspecting your intended purchase and
sitting face to face to discuss buying options and
your part exchange.
Although it’s been a dreadful year and we have
plenty of things to worry about and hurdles to
climb it is hugely positive that a vaccine has been
developed and there is some light at the end of
the tunnel. As we approach the Brexit deadline
I think we all know that goods won’t be getting
cheaper, especially big ticket items like cars, with
this in mind Skoda have a range of offers that are
guaranteed until 31st March 2021 if ordered by
31st December this year that are; inflation proof,
guarantee your monthly payment and guarantee
the value of your car for the future, protecting
your investment from the myriad of current
uncertainties.
Earlier this year we took delivery of Skoda’s first
ever fully Electric Vehicle the Citigo-e IV which
was long awaited and an important transition
vehicle for us, now we are taking orders for
Skoda’s first all-electric SUV, the Enyaq which
unlike the Citigo isn’t simply an electric motor
added to an existing chassis but instead a
completely new vehicle designed solely for
electric, which is to be followed by a coupe
version later next year.
This autumn we took delivery of the latest
version of Skoda’s best-selling model (more than
6.5 million vehicles produced to date), the new
fourth-generation Octavia, sixty one years after
production of the original started in 1959. We are
eagerly waiting delivery of our first Octavia vRS
which looks very stylish and will be available for
the first time as a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) (vRS iV).
Our workshops have been extremely busy this
year so we’ve been busy recruiting, plus we
decided to recruit an apprentice as school leavers
have struggled this year finding employment.
Pictured below are new recruits who we warmly
welcome to Skoda and the Derek Slack Motors
team; Master Technician, Duncan Campbell;
Technician, Casey Walker and Apprentice, Morgan
Hamilton, plus camera shy Technician, Lucy
Mallon.
As ever we’d be delighted to see you in our
showroom to help serve you with any of your
motoring needs and on behalf of our entire team
we wish you and your family safe motoring and a
happy Christmas,
Managing Director

PRE-WINTER CHECK
It’s that time of year again. Scraping frost from
our windscreens and turning up the heating in
our vehicles.
There are important systems on your vehicle
that need to be checked before the onset of
winter. Derek Slack Motors are offering a Pre-
Winter check which will make sure that you'll
be safe on the roads this winter.
Pre-Winter Check Up
All Models £19.99 inc VAT
▶ TYRES
▶ BATTERY
▶ ANTI-FREEZE
▶ LIGHT BULBS
Winter tyres are not
just for ice and snow...
Tyres - The overall condition of your tyres is
important for grip when cornering and under
braking. We check tread depth and pressure.
Battery - Your battery needs to be in good
condition and hold charge well to ensure
problem-free starting in sub zero temperatures.
We test charge and fluid level to ensure you
keep moving this winter.
Anti-freeze - The condition and strength of
your coolant/anti-freeze mixture is essential to
prevent overheating and burst radiators. We
check the strength and top up the levels.
Wash/Wipe - Your windscreen wash wipe
system ensures that you have good visibility in
the worst weather conditions. We check and top
up the level of screen wash and wiper blades for
splits or damage.
Light bulbs - faulty or broken bulbs are illegal.
We check that all bulbs are functioning
correctly.
Check Vehicle Systemsfor diagnostic fault codes
and report.
Tel: 01642 256 100 to book
your Pre-Winter Check
There are two main types of tyre available in
the UK. Summer tyres have a relatively hard
compound, which means they provide lots
of grip above 7ºC. But when the temperature
drops below that, they can be too hard and
can’t provide enough grip.
Winter tyres are made from a softer
compound. That means they’re soft enough to provide the grip you need in temperatures below
7ºC. They also have a different tread pattern that bites into the ice and snow. Winter tyres reduce
stopping distances in snow and ice and help with cornering, enabling you to turn the car in
circumstances where you might otherwise skid straight on.
Don't clutter your garage when your tyres take their winter-summer break. Let us look after them in
our Free of charge Tyre Hotel.

HIT THE ROAD ENYAQ
ŠKODA has unveiled the all-new Enyaq iV.
The ground-breaking all-electric SUV will
be available in the UK with two battery size
options, two (rear-wheel drive) and four-wheel
drive transmission and various model variants.
SIMPLY ELECTRIC
The OCTAVIA vRS iV is our blueprint for the future,
a plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) that gives you a
dynamic, more sustainable car that meets all
your driving needs.
With even more power and
unique styling features, it
gives you not only superior
performance, but also genuine
presence on the road.
Restarting MOT Testing
We are reintroducing mandatory MOT tests from 1 August
to ensure vehicles are roadworthy
The Department for Transport six month MOT exemption for cars, vans
and motorcycles ended on 1 August. The exemption was imposed to
enable key workers to continue driving during lockdown.
Now that the exemption is over we are experiencing high volumes
of MOT test bookings and we encourage
our customers to book their vehicle's
MOT well in advance.
The Enyaq iV SUV delivers the space and
practicality customers have come to expect
from ŠKODA’s award-winning SUV models.
Thanks to its all-electric platform, ŠKODA’s
design team has been able to completely
reimagine the Enyaq iV’s interior architecture.
Enyaq iV occupants can enjoy a spacious
interior with a flat floor and a boot that can
hold 585-litres of luggage.
“It’s already safe to say
that this will be the most
refined ŠKODA ever”
