Green Flag's top tips on winter driving 31 Jan 2008 (News)
Once caught in deep snow, do not rev or 'gun' the engine, as this will cause the wheels to dig deeper into the snow. Instead, put the car into as high a gear as possible and slowly manoeuvre the car lightly forwards and backwards to gently creep out of the snow 8. If you are stuck fast in snow, stay in the car, unless help is visible within 100 yards 9. -

A Grand Monday: Rover 820i Auto 15 Jan 2018 (News)
It was once, ignominiously, Britain's fastest depreciating car, but today the Rover 800 has developed something of a cult following. Indeed, there are now enough fans of Nineties executive cars, British barges and Alan Partridge for the most middle class Rover of all to have its own owners' club - something it will become increasingly reliant on now there are so few in roadworthy condition. -

Happy Birthday: Ford Escort RS Cosworth 13 Jan 2017 (News)
But Harper’s one Ford design would also become one of the Blue Oval’s more iconic, not least because outside of motorsport, the Escort Cosworth would become a desirable car in its own right. It was never built on a Ford production line, with the initial batch of prototypes being hand-built at SVO and then series production by coachbuilders, Karmann, in Germany. At launch, two models were available, the Club-spec standard car at £21,380 and the Lux version, which included electric windows, heated screen, sunroof, and leather Recaro seats. -

Skoda Octavia Estate vRS (2005-) 19 Jun 2016 (News)
When the Octavia was facelifted in 2009, the vRS version also got the new styling (although it was a few months behind the standard model) with a smoother look and a similar front end to the second generation Fabia. It still looks good but we remain fans of the pre-facelift model with its clean and unfussy lines. Performance estate cars aren’t that common. After all – most people who go for power and pace aren’t too worried about practicality – but there are some about at this level. -
Skoda Fabia vRS Estate (2010-) 19 Jun 2016 (News)
As a result the Fabia vRS is a great car for racing around twisting roads in. There’s more to it than that though. It’s actually a good motorway car and thanks to plenty of torque, doesn’t need to be worked hard. It will happily cruise along with very little noise or fuss. -
