    Does A Garage Protect Your Car?

    Purchasing a vehicle can be a worthwhile achievement, and you’ll do anything possible to protect your new investment. Environmental factors, such as sun, rain, snow, among others, not only cause physical damage but can also affect your car’s performance.

    Safety and security should be on top of your list if you want to protect your investment, and it’s all possible by just parking your car inside your garage.

    Here are some advantages that can convince you that it’s the right option to take to protect your vehicle.

    Protects Your Car From Theft

    Imagine parking your vehicle outside, only to wake up in the morning to find out that it’s nowhere to be found, distressing, right? If you want to protect your car against such instances, ensure to park your car in a garage. It can protect your vehicle against all kinds of safety threats, such as carnapping, breaking in, or vandalizing.

    For additional security, you might also consider investing in high-tech security cameras for your garage.

    Protects Your Vehicle From Elements

    Modern cars and earthmoving equipment are designed to last and provide service for decades while withstanding whatever nature throws their way. However, they, too, have a life span. Even vehicles with dedicated owners who love washing, waxing, or performing other kinds of maintenance on their cars will manifest some of the element’s effects at some point in time.

    For instance, your car’s rusting process is likely to speed up when exposed to elements such as snow, rain, and ice. Even dew or a light frost can also affect your car’s body over the years.

    Additionally, acidic bird droppings are also harmful to your vehicle. Luckily, you can avoid all these issues by taking advantage of your garage’s protection. When you park your car inside a garage, you protect it against all these elements compared to parking it in an open area.

    Protects Your Car Against Brakes Wear And Tear

    Parking your car or earth moving equipment in a garage protects it against excessive moisture, which may lead to premature rusting of the brakes. As time goes by, the corrosion leads to rusty brake pads, which may later cause loss of control or difficulty in stopping.

    Protects Your Car Against Extreme Temperature And Sun

    UV rays from direct sunlight can affect your car in ways you might not consider. When exposed to extreme hot and cold weather, it’s more likely to deteriorate your vehicle’s exterior paint and interior colors. Also, scorching temperatures can lead to the engine seals and hoses drying up and cracking faster.

    Fortunately, a garage protects your car against different weather conditions that might affect the nature of your vehicle. That’s why you should always make sure to park in an enclosed garage if you wish to keep your car looking new for years.

    Protects Your Car Against Tire Wear

    When you park your car outside, the tires are exposed to the sun for extended periods, inevitably causing it to dry and age prematurely. Over time, the rubber will begin to crack and deteriorate.

    Avoid driving a vehicle with tires that are showing signs of deterioration, as it can make your car wobble, and in the worst case your tires may blow up while running, which can lead to terrible accidents or death caused by crashing.

    Protects The Vehicle Against Damages And Break-in

    Your vehicle is at high risk of unexpected damages and break-ins when parked in the street. For example, someone can attempt to break the windows to access your belongings in the car or take off with some car parts, such as side mirrors or tires. Also, a vehicle parked outside is at risk of branches falling, leading to broken windows, dents, scratches, and other damages.

    Thankfully, a garage prevents all these issues from happening.

    Is It Safe To Park A Vehicle For Too Long?

    While parking your car in the garage ensures security, avoid parking it for too long since it can acquire some wear and tear. Also, unhook your car’s battery if you intend to park it for a certain period of time, to ensure that the battery doesn’t drain out.

    Conclusion

    With the provided information above, you’re now well aware of how important a garage can be when it comes to your vehicle’s protection. When you park your car in a garage, you’re assured that you’ve lessened the chance of security issues and eradicated cases of accidents and break-ins. Keep in mind that it takes a little effort to always park inside your garage, to reap the benefits of having your investment safe, secured, and long-lasting.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
