How can I keep my new car in the best condition?
This month, I’m taking delivery of my first ever brand new car - a Suzuki Ignis.
Thanks to Suzuki’s seven year or 100k warranty, subject to T and Cs, involving getting the car serviced from an authorised dealership, I plan to keep it for at least seven years.
My question is what steps should I take, both inside and outside of the car, involving protection applications, to keep it as much as possible, in its new car status?

Other than sticking to the servicing schedule to ensure the warranty remains intact, the best thing you can do to keep your Ignis in the best condition is to keep it garaged when not in use. Paint protection can delay the signs of paint ageing but it is not as effective as keeping the car out of the elements completely.
