• Vauxhall 3 day Test Drive 4 Apr 2006 (Forum)
  www.offers.vauxhall.co.uk I see once again Vauxhall are offering their cars for a 3 day test drive. I took advantage of this last year to try the Astra Sports hatch and although I disliked the car, the actual procedure was relatively fuss-free with no hard pressure sales. Might try out a new
• Corolla gearbox level check/Drive belt 2 Apr 2005 (Forum)
  For a 2001 1.4 vvti model (last of old shape) does anyone have a diagram of what has to be removed to check the box level? Also what top up oil should be used? Also I cannot see an adjuster for the alternator drive belt. How is the belt tensioned please? Thanks.
• very short drives: how bad are they ? 1 Dec 2003 (Forum)
  We have to frequently drive 2 miles to the nearest park to walk our dog, it varies but on average 5 times a week. Is this likely to cause damage to the 2 Litre petrol engine (it's a new Mazda) and how badly ? I read that it might seeing as a car needs over 3 miles to complete a full cycle.
• Driving with a broken (left) foot 6 Aug 2019 (Forum)
  I managed to break a metatarsal bone in my left foot yesterday (slipped on the stairs at 2am while going to see why the puppy was barking). I’m not even going to attempt to drive either of my cars for a good few weeks, and will ask at the fracture clinic tomorrow about driving generally. But I

• Nuisance parking 26 Sep 2011 (Forum)
  We live next door to a car repair garage. My drive is parked over and blocked numerous times a day by the garage owner, customers and delivery vans. He also has cars parked on the road for weeks and months on end that never move. We have asked him so many times not to block our drive
• Using gears to slow down 18 May 2005 (Forum)
  I think it has now been established that using the gears in a manual car to slow down is out of date and is a driving test failure. Something to do with it being cheaper to replace a brake pad than a clutch plate. I don't drive manuals these days but when I drive rental cars which are manual, I
• Philosophy About Driving 4 Dec 2003 (Forum)

• Is it time to ban driving 'aids'? 14 Apr 2003 (Forum)
  Following on from Darcy Kitchin's thread ('It's not rocket science, or is it?') I really do think that we should be looking at the amount of driving 'aids' that we have in our cars. I can accept (despite the recent thread) that ABS is helpful in emergency situations as your average Joe would
