    I drive a turbo diesel and really appreciate the 'ooomph' that its high torque level provides but.... could someone explain the difference between power and torque in layman's terms? They each seem to be important but are obviously not the same thing.

  • High cars, not 4 wheel drive, preferably Japanese? 16 Sep 2024 (Forum)
    I have not had anything non-Japanese for 20 years so I would need a bit of persuading to go back to Ford or Vauxhall. . I am considering the Mazda 5 but they are thin on the ground. I don't want an import because I am having to give up current imported Honda due to unavailability of spares.  I don't want 4 wheel drive because then you lose luggage space. We do regular car boot sales and need space, but we want a car that is still easy to park and use daily.
