• Insurance - Fully Comp? 4 Jun 2004 (Forum)
  Hello all, After my first year of car ownership (and third party insurance in my name) I have decided that I will upgrade to fully comp insurance as it's only a touch more in the second year. Anyway, I have been told that fully comprehensive cover entitles you to drive any other car third party? Is this true? It would be most helpful as sometimes I play taxi to my Mum and Dad when they want to go out for a drink so being able to drive his would make a lot more sense on those occasions.
• Flashed at in France 7 Feb 2004 (Forum)
  BTW for those of you who are off to France, the police are now stopping anyone doing more than 136 kmh on the 130 kmh stretch of the autoroute. It is incredible how much slower the French drive now!

• Clarkson gets Bentley stuck! 26 Oct 2003 (Forum)
  In my local free paper last Friday, full article on Jeremy Clarkson getting the next Bentley Coupe stuck on a local beach in a piece for the new Top Gear series. The producer asked him to drive the Bentley onto the shingle beach (Budleigh Salteron, Devon) in the sunset. The car (probably weighing c 2 tons?) couldn't drive off as it sunk into the shingle - so they spent some furious time digging it out & using boards!
• Sympathy for White Van Man 2 Oct 2003 (Forum)
  First time I have ever driven something bigger than a car (well, I have driven a tank, but that was off road) and I now appreciate just how different your approach to driving has to be. Sadly I only managed to do 30 miles before the clutch gave up on me, just at J2 of the M57. Have received a lot of ribbing about that, given it was my first time driving the vehicle.
• Instrumentation 20 May 2003 (Forum)
  With BMW's toy I would be tempted even more, with the consequent distraction from driving. Have Rolls Royce got it right - do we really need so much information?
• insurance requirements? 28 Nov 2002 (Forum)
  I have an old banger which I run as a second car and i'm trying to work out what the least I can pay to insure it is? I have a policy in my own name for another vehicle which allows me to drive other vehicles third party only. The exception is that it doesn't cover other vehicles owned by me; fair enough. If I register the 2nd car in my partners name then technically it's not owned by me so my insurance should cover me to drive it?
• Men should pay less for petrol! 19 Apr 2002 (Forum)
  I have been considering the usage of cars by men and women and it seems clear that men drive smoother and cleaner although all be it less greener cars. The adverege women stalls and starts and uses the car for school runs and 100yd drives to Sainsburys, thus being extremely inefficient on fuel.
• Tax Disc Camera 2 Dec 2001 (Forum)
  Driving along the A12 near Ipswich last week, I passed a vehicle and trailer parked in a layby. A big sign in front of the trailer announced that there was a camera in it, to catch people driving untaxed vehicles.

• Decisions decisions 29 Jun 2001 (Forum)
  My '94L Pug 306 is long in the tooth and making noises that says it needs a new owner. My question is what to replace it with. I would like something in the 12k bracket that is fun to drive and reasonably reliable. My choices are between 2yo VW golf GTI, Audi A3 1.8T or Alfa 156 2.0T-spark. My wife drives an Audi A4 which can not be faulted (apart from its ability to attrach immobile pedestrian barriers at the local retail park), so the A3 seems a good choice, if overpriced.
