  Peugeot Adopts Speed Limit Warning System 20 Aug 2003 (News)
  However, the introduction of ‘netting off’ nationally – whereby Police Forces are able to reinvest fines in more cameras – in August 2001, is expected to push this figure through the 3m barrier. The new deal will see the Cyclops system being sold across Peugeot’s entire car and LCV model range. By offering a powerful three layer warning system, Cyclops alerts and protects the driver to the changing speed conditions controlled by speed cameras. "Drivers benefit from an audible warning of cameras 800m away, a clear display of the speed limit and a combined audible and visible alert if they are approaching too fast," explains Steve Wreford, Managing Director of Cyclops.

  Pre-Christmas Clearout at Auction Today 14 Dec 2001 (News)
  Plenty of other cheapies included a top spec 18,000 mile 2001X Celica 1.8 VVTI with leather, sold for £14,350; an 86,000 mile 99T BMW 520i with a/c sold for £8,300; a 100,000 mile 98S BMW 318iS coupe in silver sold for £6,400; and a 67,000 mile 97R Merc C180 Classic with a/c sold for £5,900.

As if you need telling, next week's the last week before Christmas but, because the money can't be banked before the year end, reserves will probably reflect the traditional January uplift.

  VAT RELIEF FOR THE DISABLED 21 Jul 2001 (News)
  This means that the adaptation work must be invoiced to the customer on the same invoice as the supply of the vehicle. In the past disabled people have paid for the car and then made a separate arrangement with the specialist conversion company to do the adaptations. This will not work in future unless you are prepared to give up the new VAT relief. Ideally you should be able to arrange for your usual conversion specialist to do the work to your specification and under your supervision as usual, but for this to be invoiced to the car dealer supplying the vehicle.

  Though Motorpoint has cut a few prices, there has been very little movement over the past week, which doesn’t mean that enforced price will not be felt over the next few months. Trade Sales has a healthy stock of all BMW 3 Series in strongest demand. Sports cars like MX5s, MFTFs and MR2s are still looking very good value generally, with spec differences such as hardtops accounting for slightly higher prices. This is as up to date as I can make it today, but please link to the websites for the very latest deals.

  Is Castrol Valvemaster fuel additive still available? 24 Apr 2018 (News)
  .’ Fuel additives like Valvemaster were designed for use in classic vehicles that were made to run on leaded petrol – mostly cars built before 1992. Without the addition of lead in the petrol, enthusiasts were concerned that the valves seats would suffer from recession. However, because of the low mileages (and light use) that many older vehicles enjoy, this seems to have been much less of a problem than many predicted.
