Beware the Ides of March...

The ides of March (Latin: Idus Martias) is the name of March 15 in the Roman calendar. The term ides was used for the 15th day of the months of March, May, July, and October. The Ides of March was a festive day dedicated to the god Mars and a military parade was usually held. In modern times, the term Ides of March is best known as the date that Julius Caesar was assassinated in 709 AUC or 44 B.C. In William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar, Caesar is warned to "beware the Ides of March."

What you need to beware of in March is the damage that salt and such has done to your vehicle over the course of the winter, so now is a good time to book your appointment for cleaning. Be sure to ask about our superior Canadian desalting products and packages!

Is Your Lease Return Coming Due?

Always be sure you know how your lease contract reads before returning your vehicle. More often than not, a lease contract will say something along the lines of 'you are required to repair any damage that is larger than the size of a credit card'. This damage is commonly referred to as 'excessive wear and tear' and you'll get billed at the leasing companys rates (which are outrageous). Before you turn in your vehicle, have our experts check your vehicle to avoid paying retail prices for 'excessive wear and tear'. The truth is, this work is performed by contractors, and we're one of those contractors. The leasing company then marks up the cost of our work and makes a profit right out of your pocket for doing nothing! Save your money - bring it to us first!
