  • Top 10: Maxi scooters 2020 (Article)
    The 125cc engine does a sound job of powering the Chieftain, though two-up riding does show up its limitations compared to maxi scooters in the 300cc class. Peugeot Satelis 400 Licence category A2 Peugeot hasn’t gone to town on the frills or extras with the Satelis, which is reflected in its keen pricing.
  • Top 10: Scooters 2020 (Article)
    Some may think that spells the end of the fizzy French scooter, but Peugeot has bucked the trend and given the updated Speedfight more power. This comes courtesy of the 125cc Smartmotion engine that brings it into line with EU4 emissions. Peugeot offers a variety of colours for the Speedfight, as well as some handy options such as a top box, so you can personalise this scooter to your tastes.

  • RUNNING IN A DIESEL: What's the best way to run-in a diesel engine? (FAQs)
    However, this does not always work and the extra fuel can instead find its way into the engine sump, contaminating the lube oil and sometimes leading to such a rise in sump oil level that the engine can start to run uncontrollably on its sump oil and will self-destruct. Peugeot/Citroen/Ford diesel engines don't need to get quite as hot as diesels in other makes because they use an additive to help regenerate the DPF. This used to be added to a tank under the back seat, but is now contained in a bladder that needs to be repalce around every 100,000 miles.
  • Top 10: Cheapest new scooters 2018 (Article)

  • ADBLUE: What is AdBlue and What do I need to know about it? (FAQs)
    AsBlue is a non-toxic, colourless solution of urea and water-based fluid added to the exhaust system of diesel engined cars and trucks in order to reduce the NOx emissions to a level compliable with EU6 and now WLTP. It is contained in a separate tank with a separate external filler (Mercedes, Jaguar, Peugeot) or must be replenished by a dealer (some earlier AdBlue systems). It is on sale at fuel stations in 10 litre containers at around £16. Enough to last 6,000 miles costs between £16 and £32, depending on the size of the engine. 4.7 litre containers and 2 litre containers are also available and come with spouts for easier refilling.

    It also keeps your dog safe if you have reason to stop quickly. We tested the RAC Harness and seatbelt in an old Vauxhall Corsa and a Peugeot Boxer horse lorry with a very tired Cockerpoo named Roly (we’d all been out to the beach).
    Classic Car Tyres (Article)
    .  In 1975, Michelin had another big idea - the TRX ('Tension Repartie' or distributed tension), which proved itself in Formula One with with Renault and Prost and in the world rally championship on the Audi Quattro, Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 and Renault 5 Turbo. Here, the tyre and the rim worked together to offer improved directional stability. it was fitted as original equipment to a number of cars, including BMWs, the Citroen CX 2400 GTI, Peugeot 604, Ferrari 308 GTS and GTB, Alpine A310 V6, Renault 5 Turbo and Peugeot 205 Turbo16.

    Peugeot Speedfight The Speedfight seems to have been around forever thanks to this long-lived Peugeot scooter’s enduring popularity. That’s good news for used buyers as there are plenty around, so you can afford to be choosy.
  • Review: Norco Fluid 2 HT (2019) (productReview)
    We even found it difficult lifting it onto a roof-mounted bike rack on our Peugeot Rifter. Once rolling, its mass is less of an issue. Yes, those chunky tyres and the 12-speed SRAM NX Eagle drivetrain are definitely focused towards low-speed off-road riding rather than setting a new Strava record (you’ll soon run out of gears attempting to keep up with cars on downhill road sections), but it’s quick enough as an introduction to mountain biking.
  • Car Experience Day of the Year shortlist (Article)

  • Review: Disklok steering lock (productReview)
    You need to be mindful when taking the disklok off your steering wheel as well, or you might find your fingers trapped between the various metal sections that slide to fit together. The small size will work for pretty much all cars, even Peugeot models with their diddy steering wheels, but you have to be careful if your car is fitted with paddle shifts on the steering wheel as it may not fit over them. Our pictures show it on a Ford Fiesta, but we also tested it on a Mercedes C-Class, Mazda CX-5 and Audi Q2 with no issues.
  • Review: Honda Vision 110 (productReview)
    The turning circle is good, though the Vision doesn’t feel quite as agile zipping through gaps as some of its opposition like the Peugeot Tweet. Still, the Honda’s mirrors only extend slightly beyond the width of the bars, so it’s easy to judge which openings you can get past without risking a loss of paint or face. As with the 50cc Vision, the riding position is good, you have a flat foot board that lets you carry bags between your legs and a full-face helmet will just about squeeze below the flip-up seat.
