Manging director of car insurance for LG=, Selwyn Fernandes, commented: “With so many people saying they wouldn’t know where to start when it comes to performing maintenance on their car, along with Gemini Accident Repair Centres, we’ve decided to create some simple-to-follow guidance for common car problems.
