• Mini luxury cars 9 Dec 2006 (Forum)
  If we are forced to drive smaller, far more economical cars, are todays superminis a viable option for long distance driving? They seem to have most of the equipment that you get on larger cars and reading about them, they seem to be rated as comfy and have a fair amount of space

• Cambelt powered diesel pumps 19 Sep 2006 (Forum)
  Is there any reason why manufacturers do this? Surely it would be best off driven by the aux drive belt, leaving the cam timing belt to do just what it says - keep everything in sync. I can't see the aux drive belt being hard to keep correctly timed as long as everything was designed properly. I
• Company vans..? my rights?? 14 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  I've been stopped driving a company van. It was over weight. I don't generally drive this vehicle, i have a company car. I'm now due up in court over this.

• Inspired by biofuel? 2 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  My local paper reports this week the case of a man driving with vegetable oil instead of hydraulic fluid in his brake system. He used it ?by mistake?. Two garages had told him the car was a death trap, but he drove on. The police caught up with him when he was driving with four kids in the car. He
• Insurance question ? 19 Oct 2005 (Forum)
  We've just bought a new Scenic and my wife has transfered her insurance to it, this now leaves her old car in our garage with no insurance on it (we've sold it but the buyers paying in installments). At the time of insurance transfer her provider told her she could not drive her old car on her
• What new Car ?!! 9 Aug 2005 (Forum)
  Currently driving around in a 306 S16 but due to a new family member I'm thinking seriously of changing. Budget is £2k and want something reliable, economic (Compared to 22mpg from the pug)and 4 doors. Needs to be slightly bigger than the 306 but due to drive size not any bigger than a Vectra. All

• Laser Eye Surgery 24 Nov 2004 (Forum)
  Hi all. I wondered if people had any experiences of laser eye surgery and how, in particular, you found driving post surgery? I'm really short sighted (around -6.75) and would love to have laser surgery to dispose of the glasses for good. I commute around 450 miles per week so would really find

• Commuter car of the future? 22 Sep 2004 (Forum)
  http://www.commutercars.com/ This skinny car I like. Handles well and does a quarter mile in 12 seconds with a 0-60 of 4 seconds :-) At $85k it is a little steep but they do a $18k version which is a slower at 7 seconds 0-60 with a choice of front or rear wheel drive. The next one up from

• Cabrio Weather? 13 Mar 2004 (Forum)
  Well, on Friday night the hardtop came off the cabrio for the first time, and today I went out for a pleasant lunchtime drive. As the temperature outside was at least 8C it seemed ideally suited to my first drive with the roof down - apologies for any typing errors but my fingers are still warming
• leaky 106 17 Dec 2003 (Forum)
  Our 106 appears to be losing most of its brake fluid via the offside rear wheel. Apparently the brake warning light was on when my missus started the car to drive home tonight & when I checked the car over (in the dark) I noticed the lack of fluid & leakage on the bottom half of the hub and rear
