• Our Old cars 12 May 2008 (Forum)
  A D reg 205 traded in during 1994 with 115K on the clock, only hit the scrappie last year. There must be far more people willing to fling time and/or money at these old cars to keep them going than I first thought. I thought Cars were considered disposable once repair costs became greater than Car's sale value.
• Rover (MG) cars 19 May 2003 (Forum)
  When BMW realises the mistake they've made in buying a Rover and offloads it all, we'll rebrand as MG and take the old range down to Halfords, for garish paint, crummy spoilers and go-faster tack. 5. Marketing crisis. MG's are not selling. Who do they appeal to? Not older-aged Rover traditionalists as they're too garish, not boy racers, as they are old men's cars.

• How quickly does a car look old fashioned ? 3 Mar 2009 (Forum)
  So commonplace as to disappear against the roadscape. The latest one to look old fashioned in my opinion anyway, is the Mondeo Mk3. Strange thing is though, it has happened since Christmas. Before that they looked OK. Now they suddenly look old. Shame really. Some cars stand the visual test of time better than others whereas others age very quickly when their production run stops.
• 5 Series Diesel 3 Dec 2004 (Forum)
  Do people see these a luxo cars and therefore think they must be petrol? By the way the 525d at 2 years old is almost the same price as a one year old Accord Tourer 2.2d. Which will depreciate less??

• Cheap Chevrolets at car supermarkets 1 Nov 2008 (Forum)
  Few questions: 1) Has anyone driven one of these? I'd be very disappointed if it were as bland and sloppy as the old Nubira, but as someone who is used to an aging Primera (a good handler in its day), how is the car generally? 2) Are they as reliable as Daewoos of old? Are there any serious issues to be aware of?
