  Toyota recalls 6.4 million cars for safety checks 9 Apr 2014 (News)
  Toyota is also recalling Yaris and Urban Cruiser models over a seating fault. Toyota has found that the spring in the mechanism that locks the driver and (in three-door cars) front passenger seats in position on the seat adjustment rail may be under-strength and could break, should the seats be frequently moved back and forward. Should the spring break, the seat may not lock into its adjusted position, and could move in the event of a crash.

  Thursday want: £600 Rover V8-S 25 Apr 2013 (News)
  Corroded areas I have identified underneath on the offside and front have only been cleaned up, Waxoyl applied, covered over with varied materials and painted with grey primer. These obviously need a thorough examination and further attention. Sun roof poor and cannot be fully opened now.

  Ask HJ: What’s trending? 13 Sep 2012 (News)
  Dralle, a Touran owner, asks if smaller wheels from an older Touran will fit his car . HJ answers: “No reason why not. That part of the spec has not changed. Just make sure the bolts are compatible with the steel wheels.” Some people want to go even further than simply fitting winter tyres, though, and instead want a more capable all-wheel drive car.

  First Combined Hall and Internet Auction 3 May 2001 (News)
  Another car which wasnt all it seemed was a 113,000 mile 96N VW Golf GTi in Mars red. It looked a bit too good to be true and popping the bonnet revealed it had a completely new front from the bulkhead forwards as well as a blowing exhaust, yet it still bid to a trade book £3,700.

  Honest John's Motoring Agony Column 6-6-2015 6 Jun 2015 (News)
    Pad day My KIA cee’d 1.6CRDI automatic is now two and half years old, the longest I have retained a car out of the 43 I have owned, and intend to keep until the new GT line arrives, subject to the 7 speed DCT box being acceptable to me. Mileage is only 21k, front tyres more worn than the rears and I am perplexed as to why you do not recommend changing front to rear, which I have always done on my previous cars that required same. Front pads down to approx 3mm and I want to change, but not happy with the KIA price of £150.

  Is this Britain’s cheapest car? 24 Mar 2017 (News)
  Feast your eyes, for a second, on this beauty. A fine piece of British automotive engineering, the car in question is a 2000 Rover 45 1.4iE, a base model, with keep-fit windows, a 1.4-litre engine, plastic wheel trims and no air conditioning.  A desirable second hand car it isn’t.

  A Grand Monday: Citroen Visa Leader 14 Apr 2014 (News)
  Apart from small amounts of superficial surface rust under the bonnet, there is no rust anywhere on this car. There are a few tiny blemishes on the paintwork but overall it is well above average for what is nearly a 30-year-old car. Of course, stating that any car of this age is rot-free is always a gamble.

  Quaife Diff Makes Difference to Winter Driving 12 Feb 2009 (News)
  What's more, it does so seamlessly and instantly, without the need for electronic intervention, providing drivers of front-, rear- and four-wheel drive cars with a genuine traction advantage in all conditions. That means more grip when pulling away, more control when exiting a corner and, crucially, more control under braking, as the Quaife ATB's traction benefits also work under deceleration.
