Nissan was one of the few companies that appeared to be keeping a head above water in the current economic climate – which was good news for the local Sunderland factory. However, this was all to come tumbling down when 1200 job cuts were announced. The company said that the move was necessary to “safeguard […]
Electric cars are now a fairly commonplace sight (well, depending on where you are in the country). The argument goes on as to whether that’s a good thing, given that they still effectively use up fossil fuels by needing to be recharged – and indeed only provide a very limited distance before being plugged back […]
Whilst the list is predictable – it is for a reason. Every car in the list is either good already or has recently had a update to make it fresh and new. You’re not going to be suprised, but it may well put a smile on your face as the odds are you own one […]
Growing up in Kent the summers were hot, Blue Peter was cool and a Burton’s Wagon Wheel was as big as a dinner plate. At least that’s how I remember it as a ten year old in the 1970’s. Of course the history books reflect a different set of events; the winter of discontent, rampant […]
Government advisors said that the new hi tech device, that controls the speed of a vehicle would cut down accidents, reduce fuel use and the amount of greenhouse gasses being emitted into the environment.

A cash sum from Tata would give the government some further time to decide on whether (and indeed how) to proceed should they be underwriting the company. The car manufacturer has asked the government […]
The economy is in a mess. Car sales are down massively. A range of dealers are shutting down and worse still, manufacturers are actually seeing problems and laying off staff. However, if you’re in the market to buy, you’re in a good position (always an upside eh?). Buying a nearly new car at the moment […]
As you can see from the image above, the Nissan GT-R is an absolutely staggering beast. Huge amounts of power, a reasonable price point (for all the technology) and a hand built engine. It’s one very special car indeed. Nissan though have decided to make it better for Europe: Engine power increase – up to […]
In what appears to be another car manufacturer being hit by the credit crunch, Vauxhall is offering its workforce a chance to take a sabbatical on 30% pay. This sabbatical can last up to nine months, and presumably is a way to cut costs without actually having to cut any jobs for the time being. […]
