• Cupra Ateca 15 Jun 2019 (Forum)
  Saw my first 'Cupra' today, just looked like a Seat Ateca with a decidedly aftermarket looking badge (has a whiff of 'Transformers' about it!) and wheels. Not really sure what the point is?. Fords Vignale brand, i kind of get, because it is a more luxurious offshoot. Citroen's DS brand, i get

  So, having forked out to have a tow bar fitted to the Golf, and getting a Thule Ride On 3 bike carrier, I loaded it up this morning and took self and wifey off to Southend seafront. The whole sh'bang was easy to fit, tighten and load/fix bikes onto and we then drove off, Ye G*ds, my eyes were

• Mondeo or 9-3? 20 Mar 2006 (Forum)
  smart and is very highly specced but is only a saloon (the list is so limited I can't even get the estate) and I gather the engine is quite strong. My mind is split between what's right in my head - Mondeo - and what's right in my heart - Saab. All feedback appreciated. Many thanks, Phil DS
• Accessible Classic: The Fantastic, Forgotten Citro 5 Apr 2015 (Forum)
  —the same year as the famous SM—the GS filled an important slot in the Citroën range. Up until the GS arrived there had been an obvious gap between the frugal 2CV and its derivatives and the large and luxurious DS. GS stood for Grand Series to really point out

• Renault Clio 1.5 dCi 68 road test . . . 28 Oct 2006 (Forum)
  enjoy seeing all the 2CVs and Renault 4s. Saw one (yes, only one) Dacia Logan in a car park. In another car park saw a Lancia Thesis. Saw one or two Chrysler C300 taxis. Was quite surprised by how many Pluriels I saw. Most exciting moment was seeing a Citroen DS being driven along the main road
