• BROKERS: Which brokers should I consider if buying a new or used car? (FAQs)
  If so this may strictly speaking be illegal. Nevertheless some bulk dealer discounts can depend on the customer buying the car on a fiance deal which can then be canncelled after the first repayment but means the car costs more than the price you were originally quoted.

  Review: RAC 225 S Super HD Dash Cam (productReview)
  Pleasingly, you also get an 8GB Class 10 MicroSD card and a MicroSD adaptor. This means you don’t have to buy anything else in order to use the camera immediately. The unit itself is quite wide, due to its large screen, but it’s neatly designed and doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy – in part thanks to solid, tactile buttons.

  How to buy a scooter (Article)
  You should also check the scooter is light enough for you to move it easily. What warranty comes with a scooter? When you buy a new scooter, you’re right to expect a warranty. Even budget scooters sold online come with cover, but it’s worth checking with any model you buy how long the warranty lasts and what it includes.

  Review: Flymo Mighti Mo 300 Li cordless mower (productReview)
  There's a removable key which means that even if you do leave the battery in, you can switch the unit off to keep it safe - useful if you have children around. It retails at £235 officially but we've seen it down to £160 at several online shops. You can also buy it as a bundle with a cordless strimmer but searching online, it actually works out cheaper to buy the two separately.

  Review: Monojoy keyless car key signal blocker (productReview)
  The number one way to prevent keyless entry theft is to stop the key from being vulnerable by blocking the signal.  Thieves use relay devices (which you can easily buy online) to amplify the signal from the key fob in your home to a transmitter near your car, which essentially tricks your car into thinking the key is present. This allows them entry into the car, where they can use the start-stop button to start the car without the key.

  Review: Lanka Blue dash cam (productReview)
  The Lanka is about as cheap a dash camera as you can buy, as you can pick one up for around £20 online.  For this you certainly don’t get a UK high street brand name, and this version was delivered directly from the supplier in China.

  Review: Aukey PB-C13 18000mAh jump starter pack (productReview)
  If you’re not sure, peak cranking power for the jump pack is 600A, so check the rating on your battery to be sure it’s up to the job. Should I buy one? Maybe. If you have a second car or a motorbike, having a jump pack like this can be a godsend if you’ve left your vehicle unused for a few weeks – and since it’s so small and light it’s far easier to use or move around than an old-fashioned lead-acid powered jump pack.

  Review: Campingaz Powerbox Plus 28L electric cooler (productReview)
  On the downside, the inbuilt motor is a bit noisy, which means camper van owners might want to use the Night setting if they're using the box overnight or trying to sleep nearby.  With online prices varying from £60 - £80, the Campingaz Powerbox Plus is a lot more expensive than a standard cool box. As a result, it'll not make a lot of financial sense to those who only need a cooler for occasional use.

• What is the cheapest Classic Car Insurance for a Nissan Figaro? (Article)
  One that still needs a few jobs doing should be about £3500, while a runner in need of some TLC could be about £1250 .  What to look for when buying one? Rust. While the Figaro for sale might look nice in the pictures, underneath they can really rot. Go over the bodywork carefully and pay attention to any potential bodges (front wings, wheelarches are common grot spots).
