• OIL CHANGES: How often should I change the oil in my car? (FAQs)
  If the engine has a timing belt, change that every 4 years or every 40,000 miles, whichever comes first, unless the engine has no history of premature timing belt failures (Ford Zetec E and Zetec S engine timing belts generally exceed their design life of 80,000 miles, so can be changed at 6 years or 80,000 miles, whichever comes first.) Change the timing belt tensioner and any weeping camshaft or jackshaft oil seals at 80,000 miles (every second timing belt change for non-Ford Zetecs).

  Top 10: Best robot lawn mowers of 2020 (Article)
  Other neat features include ‘corridor docking’, which allows the charging station to be placed away from the lawn – keeping the mower out of sight when it’s inactive. Worx Landroid S Many robot mowers will only cut near to the border of your lawn, as their blades can’t reach that far without the mower venturing off the grass. Worx’s Landroid S, however, can cut almost right up to the edge, leaving you with far less trimming to do if you want a perfect lawn.
• Review: Piaggio MP3 300 and 500 (productReview)
  This bike also clearly has car drivers in mind who are considering a swap from four wheels to beat congestion. Critically, the MP3’s three-wheel design means anyone who passed their driving test before 2013 can get on these Piaggios and ride off, though we would heartily recommend completing a CBT course beforehand if you have no prior experience of scooters or motorcycles.

  Review: Ring RAC 610 analogue air compressor (productReview)
  Currently retailing between £12 and £15, it’s a more wallet-friendly alternative to the very similar  635 digital air compressor  - the main difference, as the name suggests, being the 610’s analogue dial in place of a digital display. CONSUMER RIGHTS: How do I reject a vehicle or get compensation for problems with a car? (FAQs)
  Acceptance of Rejection Although the case was decided on the basis of Clegg and s.35(4–6) of the Sale of Goods Act 1979, the District Judge also dealt (obiter dictum) with the issue of ‘acceptance of rejection’. In his judgment, the principle in s.35(1)(b) of the Sale of Goods Act could be applied in reverse, when considering whether a seller has accepted a buyer's rejection of goods.

• What is the cheapest Classic Car Insurance for a Porsche 944? (Article)
  Gone was the Audi van engine, replaced by a new 2.5-litre slant-four engine developed from the 928's V8. It looked great, too - lines were smoother and the car was actually able to make its on-road presence felt. And then there was the performance and handling... which was sensational. Deservedly, the 944 went on to outsell the 924 and was enough to keep Porsche going through its tough years 1980s.

  Mixcder E8 headphones (productReview)
  The playback quality is extremely good for the price, especially for an over-ear design.  We don't think everyone will like the E8's huge design. This means it's easy to catch them on overhead lockers on aircraft or snag on a jacket. They can be quite difficult to carry around too, with the hard carry case taking up a lot of space in a backpack or laptop bag.
