• Priu$ Worse Than Hummer 22 Mar 2007 (Forum)
  Dubbed the Superstack, the plague-factory has spread sulfur dioxide across northern Ontario, becoming every environmentalist?s nightmare. ?The acid rain around Sudbury was so bad it destroyed all the plants and the soil slid down off the hillside,? said Canadian Greenpeace energy-coordinator David Martin during an interview with Mail, a British-based newspaper.
• Audi Allroad TDi test drive 28 Apr 2004 (Forum)
  ve always liked this car in Irish Green (a metallic sage), shying away from the darker colours. The car I took out was black, featuring the ?Aluminium Optic? pack (Audi?s way of saying it has got lots of brightwork on it) and really looked the part, with one exception; the roof. On the lighter cars, the plastic roof cover (there to prevent scratching when taking this beast off-road) is fairly inconspicuous.
• Review of 3 Scenics 8 Sep 2004 (Forum)
  Over the term of ownership, I averaged 48.5mpg, it had great torque, could cruise at 100mph all day long on the French motorways. I liked my first Scenic so much that I believed Renault?s hype about their new dci engines, and traded it in for my second?????.. My second Scenic had 6000 miles on the clock and was the dealer?s accountant?s car. Platinum silver, alloy wheels, part leather interior, it looked fantastic.
• RIP Diesel Hatchback 20 Jun 2020 (Forum)
  Delving into my collection of 80’s and 90’s Diesel Car mags (yes I am a geek) reminds me of the fact that I’m going to miss diesels when they’re gone. I’ve always been a bit laidback when it comes to driving, I prefer a slogger to a speed machine nine times out of ten so they do suit my style.

• Audi Q2 - first 1,000 miles 25 May 2018 (Forum)
    No good deals when I was looking in January, as it was too new on the market, but they'll come, and there's a lot of stuff that's standard on the T-Roc SEL which is extra even on the Q2 S-line.  Well worth considering. BMW 220i Active Tourer - this came very close, but they don't hold their value as well as Q2s, the seats aren't very comfortable, and you have to put up with those infuriating BMW stalks for indicators and wipers.
