The windscreen is an extremely important part of any vehicle – and unfortunately also an area that is prone to damage. Modern windscreens are technically quite sound and made from dual layer laminated glass which is glued into position and aids in the rigidity of the whole structure of the car. Windscreens don’t tend to […]
A lot of modern cars are equipped with coil spring suspension – go and have a look at your car. Have you done so? Did you notice wound steel springs set up to take the up-and-down movement of the vehicle? These are your coil springs. Coil springs are unfortunately one of the most frequently damaged […]
Test Drive an RX-8 or request a brochure Introduction There’s nothing quite like Mazda’s rotary engine coupe – that has a 1.3 litre engine under the bonnet that powers the car like a 2.5 litre. Though some argue that it unfortunately drinks more like a 3 litre! When the first models were available back in […]
For many, the Corsa VXR is the darling of the VXR range – it isn’t too unwieldy like the Astra, it isn’t ridiculous like the Zafira. It is just right, a well balanced, exceptionally quick hot hatch with great looks. An uprated, very safe small car that is just as much at home larking about […]

This top one hundred may raise a few eyebrows; one because Sir Stirling Moss has been named number one and the great Michael Schumacher has been placed outside of the top ten. This is because in he deals with the Ferrari F1 Team, many people claim that he demanded seniority over other drivers. Clearly Michael […]
Vauxhall has been hit by fresh claims that it is producing cars with faulty handbrakes and its vehicles have the capacity to roll away when parked.

It is likely through the winter months that you will encounter some flood water, either as large puddles on the road, or where a river/stream has burst its banks. Take a different route where possible. Never drive through flood water when you cannot see the ground under the water. It could be far deeper than […]
