These are five things that are sure to ruin your weekend, especially if you’re looking to get out there and do some last minute Christmas shopping (something I’ve done myself this afternoon and still not managed to complete).

Here at Car Articles, we’re not the sort of folk who do things by half. We like our cars to be fit for purpose, whatever that purpose is – speed, comfort, space or refinement. We’re also passionate about our cars. None more so than perhaps myself, I just love the sensation of being in command […]

It’s just another fine and dandy day in the life of the motorist. In case you haven’t heard the news and ergo have no bloody idea what I’m talking about, let me fill you in. I’m referring to the idea that motorists who leave their engines running whilst stopped could be fined £20 under new […]
I was recently rushed to hospital for some completely unexpected, rather frightening abdominal surgery. I thought it was going to be for something fairly routine – a hernia – but it turned out to be more complex. In fact, I’m still suffering the complications in the form of a couple of infections. Not very pleasant […]
