Suzuki Swift S Concept

March 11, 2011 by Mr Butterscotch 1 Comment

On Repeated Fuel Price Rises…

March 10, 2011 by Mr Butterscotch 1 Comment

Now we’re at the 130+pence per litre price for petrol. When you go to the pumps, the cash now whizzes around the meter far faster than the amount of petrol being dispensed. These are worrying times for us all no doubt as the cost of living keeps rising whilst pay rises are not keeping in […]

Replacing the Murcielago, this new car produces 691bhp […]

What Sort Of Mileage Is Too Much?

March 6, 2011 by Mr Butterscotch Leave a Comment

It’s one of those funny things – down as much to personal preference as to anything else. Mileage. The big number of the dash that tells you just how far a car has travelled in it’s life. What I mean by personal preference is just what the level of mileage is acceptable to you. For […]

February 28, 2011 by Mr Butterscotch 1 Comment

The Mail Online has an article that states 9/10 parking tickets that are issued end up quashed – so why bother issuing them in the first place? It’s an extremely good question.
