  Classic Car Finance explained (Article)
  Unlike new car retailers, you won't find many classic car dealers offering fiance deals to encourage you to drive home your dream. There are a few dedicated classic car finance providers. For example, JBR offers finance for cars priced from £25k to more than £10m.

  Car Security product of the year shortlist (Article)
  While it's not the sleekest solution to car security - nor the most modern - there's no denying that the Disklok is very effective, especially against opportunist car thieves or joy riders who don't want the hassle and will move onto another car.

  Review Lexmoto Tempest 125 (productReview)
  width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/c51bc3da95c94dffbd8b543096cc932d" /> The five-speed gearbox is decent, although can sometimes slip into false neutrals. Brakes are firm but, at this price, it's no surprise we don't get adjustable front forks. The twin rear shocks come with five-step pre-load adjustment only. There's no centre stand on the Tempest, instead, there's only a side stand - which can be down when you start the bike but it has to be tucked up in order to move through the gears.

  Review: Hooke Verse audio recording headphones (productReview)
  It’s a nice idea, but in reality it’s flimsy and looks kind of…well, daft. Can you imagine holding this limp piece of cardboard origami in front of you at a gig? I didn't think so. On a far more positive note, the Verse also comes with a proper cable for attaching it to a GoPro – another advantage it has over the Sennheiser unit. And the included carry case is especially nice – high quality, sturdy and neatly designed, inside and out.

  Review: Sony PlayStation 4 Pro games console (productReview)
  width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/1bee863d22c9411fa5c2872f69f4588e" /> Usefully, the Pro has one additional USB port at the rear, which makes integrating the PSVR easier and without losing one of the two front USB charging ports (for the controllers). Bafflingly, however, the first generation PSVR’s processing unit doesn’t pass through 4K HDR signals, meaning you have to unplug the PSVR if you want to see 4K/HDR on your TV when you're not using the headset.
• Day Twenty Two Prize - Maxi Cosi Axiss (Article)

  Review: Anker SoundSync Bluetooth adaptor (productReview)
  What is it? The Anker SoundSync adds Bluetooth connectivity to any car with an aux audio input and a 12V accessory socket or USB port. It can also be used at home to pair a Bluetooth device up to speakers and stereos. It costs less than £20, so is much cheaper than buying a new audio system for a car – plus it supports handsfree phone calls.
• CONSUMER RIGHTS: How do I reject a vehicle or get compensation for problems with a car? (FAQs)
  Now they do. Some car brokers get big discounts on cars by pretending to the manufacturer that they are fleet purchases, so the manufacturer insists the car is first registered to a fleet. You can buy one of these cars and take it home, but you won’t get the registration document for maybe 6 months and when you do you find you’re the second owner.

  Review: RAC Advanced Mesh Dog Guard (productReview)
  width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/20df80a2273b4755b09e5eb5b8936b49" /> Should I buy one? The RAC Dog Guard is easy to install and does indeed fit many different cars. It's ideal if needing to use in more than one car, or for occasional use. Plus it's lightweight, easy to install and doesn’t take up much room if stored. There are cheaper universal guards on the market, but the RAC is more adaptable and a better fit for the three cars we tested it in.

  This set features an articulated transporter and two cars. It’s designed for children aged 5-12 (and grown-ups who like Lego).   Lego Duplo Rally Car Being one- or two-years old means Lego is off-limits, generally – but you can’t keep the Danish brand down – they’ve come up with chunky Duplo that’s ideal for littler, less dextrous hands.

  It fits a double DIN slot, so check with a car electrician if you’re not sure if it’s compatible with your car. This system effectively replicates the same functionality you would get from a new car with the latest connectivity features, and it's very easy to use.
