Just giving the pug a look over. Anyways, a little low on Coolant. Should i just chuck it in from the bottle giving the weather at the minute?
Apart from Oil, Coolant and Brake Fluid, should there be anything else to check? I'm not really a car person  The truth be told, i've never had a car this long before, or done this sort of miles 
The brake pads should be ok, they were checked 5kish ago

Stick some in the bottle and a bit of water as well.
Check the washer jets bottle but make sure you put some screen wash in if you top it up

50/50 mix with de-ionised water is recomended. However if its just a little top up put it in neat will be fine.

Cheers guys!
