Looking for the best commuter car for the motorway, what are my options?
I am working away from home, about 130 mile commute one-way that I do one round trip a week. Based on your website I bought a 2015 Honda Civic. I absolutely love it. Fun, sporty and great on the consumption (60mpg). I would like a car that I won't get stung for ULEZ charges. I had thought of going electric, but I want to consider all my options. Can you recommend anything?

Most modern cars are comfortable and capable on the motorway, so it is more a matter of what kind of powertrain you are most keen on.
The Skoda Superb is an excellent motorway cruiser and you will find that most recent models will be ULEZ-exempt. As for hybrid options you could consider the Lexus RX, Honda CR-V or Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and if you want to go full electric you could look at the Tesla Model S or Hyundai Kona.
