Buckingham pally

My friends in County Durham are hoping to move down to Buckinghamshire, where they will no longer need the 4WD of their Nissan X-Trail, which is not economical to run, either. The husband is a tall man...

Gripping yearn

I come from Cyprus and I have found your site to be extremely helpful and a serious source of information re cars. I am interested in a Peugeot 3008 and I have a question regarding "grip control". Can...

Sat fright

My Peugeot 406 HD90, now 5 years old is fitted with factory satnav. I have not used it a great deal locally but now, about to go away, I find it unreadable. The main dealer states that it has to be returned...
