The All New 2013 Chevrolet Trax

Leave Your Worries Behind with Added Protection!

Buying a new car is always an exciting experience.  Nothing is more satisfying then driving a new vehicle.  As we know, those first few months we would do anything to keep it looking like new.  You wash it once a week; make sure people wipe their feet before they get in your vehicle.  You probably even park at the back of the lot so you don’t get anyone opening their door and scratching yours.  What if we told you, we could offer you additional protection to keep your car looking and feeling like new?

At our dealerships we offer a wide variety of additional protection for your car.

Paint Protection:

Just because your car is new, doesn’t mean that your paint is protected.  Over time your vehicle will experience fading, oxidation, pollution, tree sap, bird droppings, road salt and rain.  These factors are destructive to your paint finish.  Through Diamond Kote we offer you paint protections that will bond to the vehicle’s surface and protect it from the elements. In addition, our dealerships offer protection against paint bubbling.  With paint protection, you will never have to wax your vehicle again!

Fabric & Leather/Vinyl Protection:

No matter how much you love your vehicle, we all know that over time we will experience spills, stains, discoloration – perhaps even odor from having a pet.  You can protect your car from all of the above with the Diamond Kote Fabric & Leather/Vinyl Protection. Our dealerships also exclusively offer protection against, rips, tears or burns.

Rust Protection:

Fact – Rust shortens the life of your vehicle and reduces its re-sale value. The Diamond Kote rust protection penetrates to where the corrosion begins and even protects against surface rust. In addition to the great packages we offer, the products we use are safe for the environment.

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette

The North American International auto show in Detroit is almost one week away and Chevrolet fans, Corvette fans and car enthusiasts alike are eagerly awaiting the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Since the first teasers and renderings were released, there have been a lot of questions surrounding the C7. Will the new installment of v8 engines live up to expectations? Will it be as light on its feet as previous versions? Will it maintain its ‘affordable sports car’ reputation? All of these questions and more will be answered next weekend in Detroit.

In collaboration with Polyphony Digital and their acclaimed racing video game, Gran Turismo 5, Chevrolet allowed for a first time privilege to give their gamers the opportunity to test drive the 2014 Corvette  in the Gran Turismo 5 game.  What has been seen of the C7 in the game is about as much as Chevrolet has released.

The iconic American sports car will make its debut on January 13th, 2013 in Detroit. We know it will be everything the world is anticipating, and more.

Chevrolet has released a series of dramatic teaser trailers that give us a brief look at the conception, calibration, and interior of the 2014 Corvette. Take a look at the initial trailer here, and be sure to visit Queenston on the Mountain or Queenston on Centennial at www.queenstonchev.com for more information on the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette.

KEEPING YOU AND YOUR VEHICLE SAFE THIS WINTER

No matter how many times we do it, driving in wintery conditions never gets easier or less frustrating. Driving in snow can be risky and you must always be prepared for the unexpected. When bad weather does strike, we recommend staying off the roads if possible. 

Did you know that snow and ice are more slippery at 0 C than at -20 C or below? It’s a common misconception that the colder the temperature the worse the roads – be aware this isn’t the case.  Even at 4 C there can be black ice on the roads. Always keep a safe distance between yourself and another vehicle as sudden braking can cause skidding.

Few things are more annoying than when you need to get somewhere and you find your car buried in snow.  Although it is tempting to quickly clear your windows and go, it can be dangerous for both you and those driving around you.  See and be seen – make sure that you properly remove all snow and ice from your hood, windows, lights, roof as well as the rear part of your vehicle.  It is also a good idea to take the brush and clear any snow or ice between your wheels and under your bumper.

Transport Canada has put together a highly informative booklet on Winter Driving Safety Tips.   This book is free and highly useful.  It can be viewed online or printed off to keep in your glove compartment.

Some tips in the booklet include:

  • Preventing problems before they occur
  • Getting your vehicle winter ready
  • How to prepare for driving in poor weather
  • Avoiding collisions

To view or download a copy please visit Transport Canada http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/safevehicles-safetyfeatures-winterdriving-index-693.htm
