• Honda CR-V - Honda CRV Auto door lock when driving 28 Dec 2024 (Forum)
  Hello I have a Honda CR-V EX hybrid AWD 2021 model.  I like to have the doors auto lock when I first drive off and reach a certain speed or just have the doors locked when I put the car in D drive. I can't seem to find this option. There are many youtube videos that show walk away auto lock, but i can't find this option either.
• Supercar driving experience? 5 Sep 2023 (Forum)
  I fancy going supercar driving experience days. Since they are quite pricey, want to ensure I get most out of my money. I want to choose cars which I can drive safely while still having fun. I don't want to be in a situation that I floored the throttle, then immediately spun and ended up in a ditch!

• Volvo XC70 - Can I drive my new car without the new keepers ? 25 Jan 2023 (Forum)
  I have photos of the v5 all pages and it's insured and taxed. I'm just waiting on green slip with royal mail and the V5. So can I drive it if I don't have the green new keepers slip, but have a photo of it? And if it's taxed and insured? Surely it's just like driving a hire car until it's properly in my name? Thanks

• Car insurance with foreign driving licence 13 Feb 2019 (Forum)
  I will definitely need a car and accordingly I checked the car market and figured out that buying a car wouldnt be a problem, but getting cheap car insurance will be. I have 9 years no claims discount and have no penalties for speeding or driving convictions on my german drivers license, but insurance companies in the UK dont seem to take that into consideration. They just put me on a basic level as if I wouldnt have any driving experience, thus all quotes are terrificly high.

• Avensis 2010 diesel - Avensis 2010 diesel. Faulty "EDU drive"?! 26 Mar 2015 (Forum)
  My avensis had the engine warning light come on three days ago as well as the parking brake fault. Noticed straight away that I had lost a lot of power when accelerating. Now feels like I'm driving a 1l corsa or something similar. Brought it to the local Toyota garage and they have diagnosed a "faulty EDU drive" and said it will be upwards of a thousand euro for the part and labour. Basically I'd love to know if anyone has any experience or info on this.

• Seller Erase Error Codes before test drive? 28 Jan 2015 (Forum)
  I dont see the point of the buyer taking a diagnostic code reader to the car that he/she will view/test drive when the seller can erase the codes from the car before the buyer turns up. Can a test drive bring the error code/s back? If not how does the buyer is sure that the car is error free before spending lots of money?

• Mazda 3 - Mazda 3 (Previous) 16 Jan 2014 (Forum)
  I have had one before but hadn’t driven it to the extent that I drove this one. What a great car this is to drive, the steering, the handling, the gearchange and ride are all excellent. I regularly drive a Focus for work and I can honestly say that the Mazda is at least on a par with the Ford from a driving enjoyment point of view.
