Total Coverage Director, Linda Bratcher loves her Toyota iQ. She says: ” Since I bought the Toyota iQ, six months ago, I have halved my CO2 emissions and saved a heap on fuel, insurance and Road Tax. My previous car emissions were rated at 182g/km, nearly double that of the iQ which is rated at 99g/km. I love it!”
The Toyota iQ has been named Green Car of the Year, according to the Environmental Transport Association‘s 2010 Car Buyers’ Guide, which highlights which cars are best and worst in terms of their impact on the environment.

I have recently completed a BA (Hons) degree in Graphic Design at Southampton Solent University. I was honoured to have my final project, entitled ‘The Great British Hedgerow’, selected by Total Coverage for the ‘Best in Show’ award. I was given the chance to come and work with the company for two weeks for a look at the design profession. Total Coverage was very welcoming and gave me a great insight into what they do and how they work. They were very helpful, enabling me to develop my understanding, knowledge and skills. I was especially grateful for the push into new software which I originally had reservations about using. Their sound advice and professional nature provided detailed analysis of my work and how a designer should work with clients. I also enjoyed getting to know the staff and working with them was great. Their friendly nature made me feel comfortable straight away; I want to give them a huge thank you for having me. Finding the time to allow me the chance to come in and really get to know and understand their company. Previous work experience in graphic design offices just didn’t measure up to them!
Thanking them again for their help and support.
