Used Van Buying Guide: Nissan NV200 2009-2019 16 Jun 2025 (News)
Packing masses of space into its 4.4m overall length, Nissan’s light panel van boasts a volume of 4.2 cubic metres - a full 900 litres more than a Citroen Berlingo. Indeed, to match the NV200’s volume you’ll need to look at long-wheelbase versions of its rivals. Even here it excels, with 200 litres more than a Renault Kangoo long-wheelbase and matching that of a long-wheelbase Vauxhall Combo. What it delivers in space it might lack a bit in style, but that is a compromise most buyers will be happy to make such is its usefulness. -

NITROGEN IN CAR TYRES: What's the point of filling car tyres with Nitrogen? (FAQs)
Reduced rolling resistance improves miles per gallon by 2% Nitrogen tyre inflation is not a new concept. Nitrogen as a tyre inflation medium has been around since the early 70’s and has been used in applications which require safety or performance. The earthmoving industry use Nitrogen to prevent latent heat build-up as Nitrogen does not heat up as much as compressed air when a vehicle is in motion. -

Sat Nav of the Year shortlist (Article)
Built-in WiFi also means you don’t need to faff around with wires when you want to update the Rider 550’s maps and software updates either. Find it on Sports Bike Shop here >> Read our full review Shenen 7-inch If you’re in the market for a sat nav and simply want something inexpensive and functional, then this is a sensible, straightforward option. -
Dash Camera of the Year shortlist (Article)
>> Read our full review Vantrue N2 Pro Dual The N2’s key feature is a wide-angle forward-facing camera that works in conjunction with an adjustable rear-facing camera. Further increasing its capabilities is a G sensor, which protects footage automatically when an incident is detected, and a ‘Parking Monitor’. -
Review: Honda Izy HRG 416 SK (productReview)
width=500&height=375" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/2dd001a0a45b4968ae8e8e76b592990c" /> Pull the second bar on the handle and the self-propelled function kicks-in, pushing the mower along at 0.92m/s. That’s fast enough to take the strain out of the mowing, without feeling that you’re being pulled along with it. For smaller lawns this feature is probably a bit of an extravagance, in which case you may want to consider the push variant (HRG 416 SK), but for anything larger - and if you have a long garden - it really is a Godsend. -
Review: Piaggio MP3 500 Sport (productReview)
Where the front wheel of a motorcycle could slip away if you hit some wet leaves while cornering, the Piaggio MP3, with Anti Skid Control, stays stable. When you consider that the MP3’s 493cc engine puts out 40PS, gets it to 60 in about 6 seconds, tops out at 95mph, yet gives you 75miles on a gallon, you’re not going to be holding up the traffic or diminishing world oil resources. Three wheel disc brakes with ABS and ASR give exceptional stopping power, with, of course, 50% more rubber on the road than a motorcycle’s. -
Review: Ducati SuperSport 2017 (productReview)
But the result is a very secure and stable ride that inspires confidence even on greasy or wet roads – helped further by the excellent Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tyres. If you have a bit more cash to spend you can get a SuperSport S, which gains a quick shifter, enabling clutchless up and down changes through the gearbox. It also gains more sophisticated Ohlins front suspension, which gives even better ride quality and control than the already impressive Marzocchi forks on the standard bike. -
Review: Vantrue OnDash N2 dash cam (productReview)
It’s not some pared-back bit of kit, either. It’s packed full of tech and, as a result, could tick myriad boxes for many buyers. The N2’s key feature is a wide-angle forward-facing camera that works in conjunction with an adjustable rear-facing camera. These allow it to capture a 310-degree view around the car, meaning all the evidence you need should be recorded in the case of an incident. -
Review: Ring RBGDC50 (productReview)
It’s not overly expensive, with a list price of £59.99, which means it's ideal if you're seeking an affordable, reliable dash cam from a recognised brand. The RBGDC50’s specifications lend it further appeal. It’s a compact, subtle unit that has a 2.7-inch widescreen display on the back, records in 1080p HD and has a wide-angle lens to capture more of what’s going on ahead of you. -
Review: Honda NC750X 2017 (productReview)
No wonder they’re such a common sight in cities like London. The NC750 comes in two different flavours. The S is a typical unfaired road bike, while the X tested here gets some Adventure bike styling touches, including a ‘beak’ under the all-LED headlight. But, underneath, both bikes are the same with an economical 745cc two-cylinder engine and six-speed transmission. -
Review: Suzuki SV650 2017 (productReview)
But while those parts are dated, Suzuki has at least used a few bits from the parts bin marked “modern components”. The mirrors and digital instrument surround, for example, are shared with the GSX-S 750. Even the frame comes from Suzuki’s back catalogue - it’s an evolution of the one used in the previous Gladius. So the SV 650 really is a bit of a hotchpotch and it’s clear to see where some corners have been cut. -
Review: Aprilia SX125 (productReview)
Even after a prolonged ride at the national speed limit, our hands remained full of sensation, so Aprilia should be applauded for making the SX125’s power unit so free spinning. Making the most of the revs is further enhanced by the six-speed gearbox that clicks up and down easily. There’s enough room around the pedal to wear chunkier winter boots and still find the lever with ease, so this is a bike that could be used all year round. -
Review: Yamaha MT-09 (productReview)
Pared back, simple streetfighter looks combined with a punchy three-cylinder engine and crisp power delivery have made it a firm favourite with riders who need something more broadly talented than a supersport bike, but still want their thrills. A recently added SP model addresses the one weak link in the MT-09’s armour: suspension. The SP upgrades the springs and dampers at both ends to create a better handling bike and one that doesn’t come with a huge price premium for the privilege.Review: Thule Raingutter bike rack for older/classic cars (productReview)
Indeed, in relation to the ease of first installation this selection proved significantly easier than the flush roof or roof-bar mountings more modern cars require. Most cars in the '70s and 80's had rain gutters, so the whole business of attaching roof racks became a bit more complicated when these were removed. We went for the Thule Raingutter kit 951 , which can only be fitted with Thule’s 761 SquareBar , denying us the use of the more aerodynamic profile of some of its other bar offerings.Review: Ducati Monster 797 (productReview)
The motor has bags of grunt low in the rev range and makes 80 per cent of peak torque at just 3500rpm, so you have crisp, accurate throttle response when you want to accelerate away from traffic. The steering lock is better than previous Monsters, but it’s still not as tight as a Yamaha MT-07’s. As for other practicalities, the 16.5-litre fuel tank should see more than 180 miles between fills without running on fumes and pillion seat can just about cope with an average adult for short hops.Review: Suzuki GSX-S125 (productReview)
The Suzuki GSX-S125 is based on it's popular sporty sibling, the GSX-R125, which offers the same 124.4cc single-cylinder engine. And although the R and S models share many of the same features, the different chassis set-ups make them feel like very different bikes.Review: Mio MiVue C330 dash cam (productReview)
width=500&height=333.33333333333337" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/021445027e354310b555e2e1c6fce35a" /> What is it like? The C330’s box is so full of accessories - the charging lead, windscreen mount and manual - that the tiny dash cam itself is almost hidden. One you've read the instructions - if you’re that way inclined - installing the camera is easy.
