Annual Servicing

We’re here to keep your cars
performance
at it’s very best

Silver and Gold members of Hippo Protect will receive a routine service every year, or every 12,000 miles - whichever comes first. We’ll send you handy reminders to book in your service when it’s due, or you can give us a call if you hit the mileage cap.
