Car Club launches!

This brand new car is part of Swindon’s Co-wheels Car Club family and is parked on Shippery Lane, Wichelstowe, ready for residents and the neighbouring community to use.

It’s part of the car club, which allows you to access pay-as-you-go cars so you have a vehicle when you need it, but not the expense of owning it.  The car can be hired for just £5.95 an hour, with cheaper day rates.

If you’re not yet a member, visit https://www.co-wheels.org.uk/swindon and use code WICHELSTOWE for great joining offers.
