Welcome to the MyCarGlass blog

Plain-English answers to the questions UK drivers ask most often about windscreen replacement, repair, insurance, and what actually counts as roadworthy. Family-run, since 1995.

This is the scaffold post for the rebuilt MyCarGlass blog. It exists so the post template and index page have something to render while content is being written.

When real posts land in src/content/blog/, this file can be deleted (or kept — your call).

What the blog covers

Three threads, in plain English:

  1. Damage and what to do about it — when a chip is repairable, when a crack means replacement, when same-day matters.
  2. Insurance — what comprehensive policies actually pay for, how excess works, what doesn’t affect your no-claims bonus.
  3. UK driving law that touches windscreens — tinting rules, what counts as a roadworthy windscreen at MOT, when a cracked screen makes a car illegal to drive.

Why these threads

Looking at the live blog’s traffic, the posts that actually get read are the practical, decision-helping ones: Does windscreen replacement count as an insurance claim, Tinting laws, Chip vs replace. The same shape of post performs everywhere — informational, decision-oriented, not salesy.

The rebuilt blog leans into that. Five strong posts in the existing top tier carry 82% of the traffic; they get rewritten and expanded. The 22-odd weak posts get consolidated or retired (see docs/redirect-map.md for the full plan).

Format

Every post: one keyword-bearing H1, real datePublished, plain markdown body, related-service links at the foot, Article schema, breadcrumbs.

Content production is a separate pass.
