  • Just for fun II 1 Mar 2020 (Forum)
    They’ve a real passion for cars with the sweet Mk I MX5, storming final RX7 Turbo and quirky Xedos from the late 80’s into the 90’s and the later post Ford era range, all of which are a pleasure to own as long as you avoid the diesels which for some reason Mazda just can’t get right. No the firm I’d pick is Peugeot.

  • Alfa Brera - I've finally driven one 1 May 2007 (Forum)
    There are some ergonomic peculiarities such as a rather strangely calibrated speedo and non-selfexplanatory climate control, but hey, it?s an Italian car. There are 3 instruments in the centre console, one is a turbo boost gauge so you can watch the turbo lag as well as experiencing it. Onto the unrestricted section and up to 230km/h.
  • Fiat Doblo roadtest - V.long!!!!!!!!!! 9 Nov 2006 (Forum)

  • Not yet sure - New Purchase 10 Mar 2021 (Forum)
    I have three options currently with I'd say up to £18,000 to play around with.  Option one is a 2014 onwards Audi Q5, 2 litre diesel S-Line plus.  Option two is a 2014 onwards BMW X3 likely 20D M sport. Option three is a 2016 onwards BMW x1 20D M Sport.  My wife has an obsession with Audi's of which, I'm not the biggest fan however I don't mind the Q5, it's a lot slower than the X1 and X3 pushing 0-60 in 9 seconds, the X1 is the fastest by quite a bit to be honest and obviously had the facelift in the back-end of 2015 so I'd say it's a lot more with the times tech and interior looks wise.
