  • Classics for everday use 23 Aug 2001 (Forum)
    I wonder what view there are out there about the worth of beating depreciation, avoiding road tax, driving something interesting instead of a lookalike box like everboy else's, by using an old (classic) car as a daily driver. I have owned a 6 rag-top Ford Mustang V-8 for more than 20 years
  • Plenty of Confidence at Auction Today 21 Sep 2001 (News)
    mile 99S VW Polo 1.4CL 5-door looked much more reasonable than they have been at a top bid of £2,700. But low bid of the day had to be just £4,400 offered for a seven month old, 5,800 mile, 2001X Nissan Micra 1.0S in silver with power steering. There will be a special sale
  • V. Omega 3.8 V6 21 Oct 2001 (Forum)
    I drove one of these this morning out to the airport and back, a new one. What a lovely car. This is a CDX and the standard of equipment was great. Lovely powerful & quiet engine, very comfortable seats, nice and smooth to drive. Loads of switches and lights to press and look at, always something

  • Turbo v Supercharger 20 Nov 2001 (Forum)
    Since the introduction of turbocharging there have been a number of attempts to re-introduce supercharging - the Mercedes Kompressor 4 cyl the latest I am aware of. The argument, as I understand it, is that the the power consumed by a supercharger offsets its advantage in drivability over
  • JD Power, Consumer's Association, etc 4 Jan 2002 (Forum)
    To start, for anyone not aware of the fact, I drive an Omega. The Omega came second last in JD Power about three years ago. The odd thing is that I know three other people who own them, and the four of us all rant and rave (to the point of utter boredom) about what a superb car it is. Now
  • Emotion vs. logic once again 7 Jan 2002 (Forum)
    The legendary lack of will-power in this family regarding things automotive with very large engines threatens another assault on the biscuit tin under the mattress in the form of a stable-mate for the Growlette's red '66 Mustang rag-top owned these last 11 years.

  • Economy of Automatics 28 Jan 2002 (Forum)
    The subject of Automatic v Manual has been raised on a number of occasions and it is simply a matter of personal choice which suits. I suspect that the majority, like me, drive manuals because an Automatic saps power, costs more to buy and you get a lower mpg. However in a Mercedes brochure
