The cold winds are filled with the chimes of jingle bells. As the year draws to a close, the winter season rolls upon us, bringing with it the joys of much-awaited holidays that will liberate you from the dull routine of your everyday life. By now, you’ve already got the kids the presents, booked a nice vacation getaway, and are ready to drive there in your armoured fortress of a car.

However, it might be a good time for a double check. You see, most bulletproof luxury cars in India need some seeing to before you can take them out in the cold weather. Sure, bulletproof cars are secure, but all armoured cars in India are designed to get you as far away from the danger as possible. If, for some reason, the car fails to move and you are stuck in a snowy deserted hostile location with no law enforcement to show up quickly, well let’s just say you might want to avoid that situation.

But you need not worry. As a premier armoured car manufacturer in India, JCBL Armouring Solutions brings you the top 5 tips you need to follow for the winter and not let that bulletproof BMW price in India that you paid be gone to the ...
... tipper.

In the cold weather, the batteries of you armoured car are much more quicker to tire out, especially if you have defensive measures in place. Therefore, it is a good habit to check the terminals and voltage of your car’s battery more frequently in the cold. It might also be a good idea to check the wirings and electrical system to ensure that everything is in working order. After all, you won’t want to be out in the cold in the middle of nowhere because of a loose wire that connects to your car’s fog lamps.

Most bulletproof luxury cars in India come with a large and peppy engine that consumes antifreeze like Scooby Doo consumes Scooby Snacks. As such, it is always a good idea to check the antifreeze levels of your car before going out on a long drive. If you’ve got a diesel car, it might be high time that you top off on ad blue and have a couple of containers in the trunk before setting out on your vacation. It is holiday season and you can’t expect every dealership or service centre to remain open and have a bunch of ad blue available for you pronto.

The cold of the weather instils changes in the metal of the car. Thus, if you’ve got ballistic steel plates and MS sheaths on your car, it is great to check for any dents or deformations. These can decrease the overall effectiveness of your car’s armour, rendering them unsafe while you car still feels like a hunking behemoth with all the weight added on. If you’ve got additional measures like heavy duty hinges and upgraded brakes, it would be nice to test them in below-zero conditions to validate that they work just fine.

During your winter travels, it is best to keep the cold winds away from the cabin of your car. Thus, it is best to check the climate control is working fine and the BR glass panels don’t have any gaps in them. If you’ve paid the bulletproof BMW price in India, you may be aware that most of them come with heated mirrors and steering wheel. The advent of cold weather is the high time to check those as well, making sure that your armoured car manufacturer didn’t mess about in the process.

Armoured car in India often see shorter maintenance cycles than their non-bulletproof counterparts, as they are more likely to wear and tear the replacements parts quicker due to the added stress. That is why you should check in with your manufacturer to bring your car in for a good seeing to. And it is not just limited to the wheel alignment and oil change. You can get in close and pick up on things you missed on your own like Kevlar rearrangement or replacement of run-flat inserts in the tyres.

All in all, it is not a very tedious job to having a second opinion when you want to make your armoured car ready for the holiday season travels, or purchase a new armoured car outright if you want to. JCBL Armouring Solutions is your best bet for not just quality bulletproofing packages, but also for the experience you need to cater specifically to the kind of protection you need and handle your car’s maintenance, all at the same time.
