The prompt · ChatGPT
Make me a car reminder list. Car(s): [make, model, and number plate if you're happy to share] MOT due: [date] Last service: [date and mileage] Tax due: [date] Insurance renewal: [date] Breakdown cover renewal: [date] Anything else: [e.g. tyres, warranty end, parking permit] Before you start, ask me up to 3 short questions if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. One table: item, due date, reminder date (about 5 weeks before each due date), notes. 2. A 10-minute pre-MOT check I can do myself (lights, tyres, wipers, screen wash and so on). 3. Tips for renewing insurance and breakdown cover without auto-renewing at a worse rate. 4. Mark anything I should check with an official source. 5. Remind me I can get an MOT up to a month (minus a day) early and keep the same renewal date, that GOV.UK offers free MOT reminders by text or email, and that vehicle tax can't be renewed if the MOT has run out. Use only the dates I've given. UK English. For official MOT and vehicle tax rules, use web search and name the page you used. If it doesn't search on its own, open View all tools and choose Search.
