• Citroen C4 Grand Picasso - Picasso Grand C4 vs Touran vs Smax 27 May 2021 (Forum)
  / efficient / EAT6 box from '15 seems to be turning point on an acceptable drive touran - smallest but like a tardis / boring / pricey / most reliable? smax - biggest but best to drive apparently / again reliability / higher running costs   if buying new might go touran but all have good/bad points. with all, 90% sold as diesels, but we do mostly town driving which seems to be an issue when you read around. other thing is manual vs auto, the budget scares me off auto boxes a bit

• Be very careful when driving in Virginia 1 Nov 2020 (Forum)
  I am in favour of any active or passive device that enhances my chance of remaining uninjured but I am little worried about the applicability of their research. They monitored the driving behaviour of 241 drivers in Virginia, who covered a total of 2 million miles in 1 year. Despite knowing that their driving was under scrutiny, they had a total of 82 crashes and 761 near misses!
• Ford Focus Zetec - Transmission issue 1 Jul 2020 (Forum)
  After turning the car off and waiting a few minutes it reversed ok, and I’ve just had a few goes driving into and out of the drive and it’s been ok. About 30 mins later I took it around the block a couple of times. The first time I went to reverse on our road it again played up, but as soon as I went into neutral and back to reverse it was fine, and it’s reversed fine 3 or 4 times since.

• Buying advice needed - 2x adults. Hatchback? 11 Feb 2020 (Forum)
  Afternoon all,  I'm presently in the market for a new car as my current is unreliable and too costly to repair. I do minimal driving during the week - perhaps 5/6 round trips of less than 10 miles (food shop, gym), but do a monthly drive between Liverpool and Bristol (round trip of approx. 360 miles). I am looking for something reasonably comfortable to drive, reliable (as far as a make/model can inform reliability) for around the £5,000 mark.
