Mechanics - be afraid. Be very afraid.

Irish author Danielle McCormick launches her Internationally best-selling book "Essential Car Care for Girls" in New Zealand this St Patrick's Day. Kiwi women need never fear of breaking down at the side of the road or getting ripped off by mechanics ever again! "It's a fantastic book that all girlies should have. It's fun, easily explained... and completely blonde proof!" Supermodel Jodie Kidd

After massive success in The UK, Ireland and Australia finally "Essential Car Care for Girls" comes to New Zealand.

Kiwi girls need never worry about being stranded by the side of the road or getting ripped off by mechanics again!

This shamelessly pink book has step-by-step pictures on how to carry out all those dreaded tasks that girls know they should do, but just don't know how! including how to check your oil and coolant, change a flat tyre in heels and recharge a flat battery by yourself.

Sections include: Basic car maintenance, what to do when things go wrong; look up the car doctor for the most common car problems and how to solve them, how to buy and sell a car and everything you need to know about being a greener driver. Better still, it is a handy glove box size so it is right there whenever you need it.

Available from petrol stations and books shops across New Zealand for $26.99 this book is a must have for every recession savvy girl who prefers to spend her money on shoes than wasting it on the mechanic.

Danielle McCormick wrote the book after blowing a head gasket. After spending $4,000 to have her beloved car fixed she knew that women all over the world were crying out for a book that just taught them the basics of car mechanics in a fun and easy way.

Danielle is a seasoned media personality having appeared regularly on radio and TV in her native Ireland, Australia and the UK. In honour of her nationality the book is being launched on St Patrick's Day.
