• Likelihood of car being written off on no-claim 10 Feb 2021 (Forum)
  I have informed my insurers of the incident, but not made a claim   I’m afraid if my insurers come to inspect my car they may try to write it off as a category S. I do not think the damage is significant, but there is a small dent in the fender and the gap between the fender and the hood is very slightly larger than the other side. I have read accounts of cars being written-off/put in category S for seemingly minor things, so am a bit worried.

• Ford Galaxy - Leg/stomach room 29 Jun 2019 (Forum)
  Anyway, could somebody recommend a car that has really good distance from the back of the seat to the bottom of the steering wheel?  I've mentioned the Galaxy but also considering something like a grand c4 picasso, c-max, s-max etc.  I did think a range rover or discovery would be a good bet but they're actually awful!  Also tried a VW transporter and a transit Due to a spinal injury the car also needs to be pretty high to avoid bending too much, again the s-max would seem to fit the bill but  I suppose i could look at a flat bottomed steering wheel which would help a bit but i was thought about what really tall people do?

• MPV diesel engines to avoid? 6 Mar 2019 (Forum)
  The one I am liking the most overall is the S-Max so if you only have time for a brief comment I would love some opinions on the TDCI lineup and how to tell the PSA derived from Ford's own. All other comments welcome. I can maintain and repair my cars for most things not requiring a lift and a crew and I am not crazy about having huge BHP on tap as long as I can move when needed.
