SNOW CHAINS IN EUROPE
23 November 2005 - Car Parts Direct

Snow Chains a legal requirement in Europe - and you’re likely to need them in the UK this winter

The French and Swiss make it quite clear. British motorists without snow chains are not welcome to their ski resorts – it’s illegal. You will be turned away, possibly fined and your holiday ruined.

Most other European countries operate similar laws for motorists travelling to their ski resorts. And with the UK set to have one the most severe and prolonged winters in year’s motorists may be wise to carry snow chains at home too.

A range of snow chains have been developed that can be fitted in just a few minutes. The chains are claimed to be very easy to fit with instructions that are covered in four simple steps.

The ‘Three-minute snow chain kit’ offers maximum grip in snow by using a special heavy-duty 6mm coated steel chain. This kit is fully TUV approved – important for insurance purposes and comes neatly packed in its own plastic carrying case.

Mail order specialist, Carparts-direct.co.uk offers a unique guarantee to refund 50% of the cost of your three minute snow chain kit against a replacement set should you decide to change your vehicle within a year. The refund on the snow chains can be claimed providing the original set remains unused.

Mark Cornwall of carparts-direct.co.uk said, “The 50% refund is great for our customers. They win if they need to use them because they are so easy to fit. And they win if they don’t need them and decide to change their car. With a severe winter expected motorists are ordering them just in case they get stuck going to work – with the 50% refund and exchange deal it isn’t worth the risk of not carrying a set of snow chains in the boot”

The ‘Three-minute snow chain Kit’ costs £59 for tyre sizes up-to 14 inch and £79 for larger sizes. Prices include Vat and Free delivery direct to any UK address. You’ll need to advise your tyre size to order which can be found on the vehicle tyres (Example 165/70/14)
