December currently feels very (un)comfortably in the future.
Then suddenly it is just weeks away, everyone is trying to service their car at the same time, and you are meant to leave for your road trip on Friday.

This is your reminder not to delay.

If the car is due for a service or you just want a proper 128-point check before the holidays, book it now and avoid spending your holiday on a tow truck.

Get your vehicle checked at CARtime Tokai or CARtime Claremont, have that routine maintenance done and that suspicious noise you've been avoiding checking - CHECKED!

And then when everyone else starts panic-calling workshops before the festive break, you can feel extremely organised and slightly smug.

The alarm is back. The lunch boxes are back. The traffic is back.

And somehow one child still cannot find the shoe they were wearing five minutes ago.

The school run has enough going on without your car deciding that this is the perfect week to start making a new noise.

If it is due for a service, needs a check or has been giving you that little warning you keep turning the radio up to avoid, bring it in.

You deal with the school run let us at CARtime Tokai and CARtime Claremont deal with the car problems.

South Africa does not exactly sit still.

There are school runs to survive, meetings to make, families to visit, jobs to get to, weekends to escape for and very long drives that somehow always start earlier than planned.

October is Transport Month, and for us it is a pretty simple reminder of why we do what we do at CARtime Tokai and CARtime Claremont

Your car needs to get you where you are going. Safely. Reliably. Without turning itself into the main event.

With CARtime branches across South Africa, we are here to help keep the country moving.
