  What makes Drive it Day so good? 27 Apr 2015 (News)
  The white dial faces, shiny black plastics, sliding air conditioning controls and Blaupunkt audio system evoke memories of the 1990s company car dream, not to mention summer trips, terrible pop music and anything else from an era that is steadily turning into a distant memory. The Calibra wasn’t the only car flying the flag for the 1990s on the CCVC fun run. In fact, even the 2000s were well-represented. There was a healthy number of modern classics including MGFs, Porsche Boxsters and Mercedes-Benz SLKs. In fact, there was a nearly-new Jaguar F-Type on the run, too.

  Toyota Claims Lowest Whole Life Costs For Prius Plug-in 24 Jul 2012 (News)
  Toyota states there is no other car on the UK market that exactly matches the benefits offered by its Prius Plug-in Hybrid Synergy Drive full hybrid powertrain: it offers the near-silent, zero emissions performance of an electric vehicle, being able to run on its lithium-ion battery for around 15.5 miles (v/s 30 miles for the Ampera) and at speeds up to 51mph. When battery charge runs low, the car’s full hybrid system – which includes a highly efficient 1.8-litre petrol engine – takes over, so the driver doesn’t have to worry about whether the car has enough power to reach its destination.

  Waterloo Road Star Chooses FIAT 500C 8 Oct 2009 (News)
  This warn is the oil has become degraded from excessive fuel oil and needs to be changed. If the car does a lot of short runs from cold, extra fuel pumped into the engine to create the heat to regenerate the diesel particulate filter may not be combusting and instead finds its way into the sump. If the sump level rises significantly as a result, the engine will start running on its sump oil and, if it cannot be stalled against the brakes, it will over-rev and blow up.
