• 2013 Toyota Camry - Japanese Import 2013 Toyota Camry 23 Feb 2024 (Forum)
  Hello, I am looking to buy a Toyota Camry. There are two 2013 Toyota Camrys I am looking at. One is the 2.0L VVTI Petrol Automatic 4 Speed Transmission and the other is the 2.5 Dual VVTI Petrol Automatic Six Speed (I think) Transmission. Both are same spec Camrys. Driving in the UK with quite expensive Petrol prices I obviously want to have the best MPG.
• Citroen C5 Aircross - Citroen C5 Aircross 5 Jan 2024 (Forum)
  I've currently got a Vauxhall Astra on lease until later on this year. Late last year I had a hire car in Poland which was a C5 Aircross diesel 1.5 automatic. Me and the family all fell in love with the car and I definitely want one in automatic to replace the astra. However, I don't know whether to go for the 1.6L Petrol Plug-in Hybrid or the 1.3L Diesel BlueHDI.

• Electric tests? 23 Apr 2022 (Forum)
  That said, on local community forums and Facebook groups, there are often posts looking for "driving tuition in an automatic", so it appears there is a market to be served. I confess I've never driven an automatic, indeed I've rarely been a passenger in one, so perhaps I'll need lessons too!

• Suzuki SX4 S-Cross - Suzuki SX4 S-Cross 2017-19 dual clutch issues? 24 Aug 2020 (Forum)
  Hi I have been thinking of buying this car as it meets a sweet spot for price/features/age. Considering spending up to £14k on a model 1-3 years old. We have to buy an automatic as my partner has an automatic licence. All the models we've seen so far have a dual clutch. In the HJ review it noted the 2015-16 dual clutches were to be avoided, but does this mean issues with them have been resolved in the later models?

• Ford Focus - Ford Focus 1.6 - tickover too high? 18 Jul 2015 (Forum)
  I know all automatics "creep" as soon as you put them in gear - I've driven automatics for 20 years - but this is ridiculous! I've just bought a Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec 2009.   It pulls away the moment I put it in gear even on a hill.
