  MoT Data for East London 6 May 2014 (News)
    The top two models are luxury cars – Bentley and Porsche – although few were tested. That said, most car makers have higher pass rates when tested in E postcodes than they do on average elsewhere in the UK. Failures related to lighting and signalling account for almost a quarter of all MoT failures, so makes sure you check your bulbs.

  MoT Data for Edinburgh 6 May 2014 (News)
  Edinburgh (EH) scores a below average MoT pass rate. Most of the causes for an MoT failure are more likely to affect cars tested in EH postcodes, with just seatbelts scoring an above average pass rate. It’s the same with most registration years and car manufacturers. Bentley models are the most likely to pass their  MoT  in Edinburgh, with failure rate of just 9.7%, 27% better than the average for Bentley models elsewhere.

  Mot Data for Chester CH 6 May 2014 (News)
  Chester has a slightly below average overall pass rate and a lot of the numbers below are red, which means below average marks. Of the cars that do fail in Chester postcode areas, the most common causes are typical of those seen across the rest of the UK. The car manufacturers with the lowest rates of failure are Porsche, Lexus and Triumph, though relatively few Triumphs were tested.

  Top 10: Most stolen modern classics 17 Sep 2013 (News)
  We all know that older cars lack the inbuilt security features we've all come to associate with newer ones - and overall theft rate against 1980-1995 classics reflect this. The trouble is that currently, many of the cars targeted in this list aren't of the cherished variety, which explains the much higher theft rate of these cars, compared with easier to stael older classic cars.

  Why these classic cars are redefining what's cool 27 Jul 2015 (News)
  Car nuts in their 30s and 40s are finally buying the cars they always wanted when they were in their teens, and there’s no accounting for taste. It’s why I, for example, have an inexplicable fascination with the Rover 800… The second reason, though, is much more encouraging.

To find out more about the New Unnamed Classic Car Group, check out its Facebook page or send Ian an email at:  trabdriver@hotmail.co.uk . WHAT DO YOU THINK?  Have you used social media to get involved with an informal classic car group – and are their get-togethers more appealing than those organised by traditional car clubs?

  A Grand Monday: Isuzu Piazza Turbo 4 Aug 2014 (News)
  After making its debut at the 1979 Tokyo Motor Show, the car went on sale in Japan in 1980, although the UK wouldn’t get the car until 1985. When it finally arrived, it was only available with the 147bhp 2.0-litre turbocharged engine. But despite a cracking powerplant, the Piazza didn’t get off to a great start as the first importer, Isuzu GB, went out of business a year later.
