The Up is a compact city car by Volkswagen and while it’s not going to be winning any wards for its boxy design, it is rather spacious and very comfortable. You don’t feel cramped at all, and even the boot space is sufficient enough for a family food shop.

Inside, the car is incredibly stylish, and it’s almost reminiscent of a traditional Beatle, with bold colours that match the exterior paint job, and swanky switches and controls. The car is really smooth to drive and it’s perfect for nipping in and out of town and city centres.

Some have said that it looks a little bit similar to the Hyundai Getz but it does have some unique features, and it takes on a completely different look from the old Lupo. This is a car perfect for all kinds of individuals who want to get from A to B fast in a stylish comfortable motor.

Motor Oil allows the internal working of your car to be lubricated to keep them in good working order. Essentially without the levels being topped up you could do serious damage to your car engine.

Make sure when you are choosing your oil you choose the appropriate viscosity for the car you have. It will be very dependant on the climate of the country you live in. So choose accordingly.

Conventional and Premium Conventional oils will be available in most viscosities but will be your “standard” oil. If you like regular oil changes, chances are your garage will use the conventional oil. If you have a new car it will come with premium conventional oil.

You could also choose a fully synthetic oil that has been tailored for newer engines with a lot of technology installed to give the optimum operating environment. Keeping the lubrications levels correct in both high and low temperatures. Synthetic blends will be a mixture between conventional and fully synthetic oils and a fraction of the price.

It can be a bit of a shock when your cars been functioning as normal and you step out one morning to head to work to find that it will not start. First, make sure you do not strain the engine by continuously turning the key, because that will only drain the battery even more.

The cause of the problem could be anything, and it’s not always a big issue. Sometimes simple turning the key over to ignition and waiting for thirty seconds, and then starting with your foot on the throttle will do the job.

If not you can always jump start your car with wires and family member’s vehicle, and as you drive away your battery will begin to recharge itself. We know that it’s not always the battery but these simple steps can occasionally save the day, and it’s not always right to panic and give up straight away.
