This is a concept that’s been hovering on the fringes for a while (and it isn’t to be confused with the RC Z – a now confirmed car set to be released 2010) – with no-one quite sure exactly what sort of status it has, how close it is to production or indeed what sort […]
Rarely, if ever, are there cars that go on and on. Part of that is our own innate stupidity – we will forget to service them, or think that the interval can wait a little longer if money is tight that month. Intervals are made known by the manufacturer for a very clear reason – […]
Cars are great things and larger cars allow you to store all manner of ‘stuff’ in them without worry. What I’m interested in here though are five things that you should have in your car, regardless of the size of the vehicle. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the list: A Spare […]
Years ago, things were much simpler than they were now when it came to buying a new car. You’d simply go to the local dealer, select a model from the range in the showroom and then buy. Now though, when it comes to buying new, there is a much wider range to choose from – […]
The standard Insignia is looking to be quite a special car – however the Sports Tourer looks to be even better. Whether it’s hugely more practical or a true ‘lifestyle’ choice remains to be seen though, you probably need four wheel drive and Japanese-build durability for that!

Here in the UK, we don’t tend to do muscle cars. They really were born in the US, out of good times in Detroit and even earlier. So, is this a bizarrely-timed April fools’ joke? Not a chance. James Martin (not the famous chef) has to my mind at least created something very special indeed. […]
Well, as I’ve documented all progress and information received so far, here’s the official race briefing. I was glad to receive it and find out I had a later race (I’m quite a way from Scotland so an early race would have been terrible) but now that I have the actual briefing I’m a little […]
I’m keen for the police to be safely conducting their business, protecting us from criminals and the like. At times, no doubt they have to exceed speed limits using their extra training they receive to operate with skill behind the wheel to conduct manoeuvres to box in joy riders and so forth. So it comes […]
Perhaps we should start naming and shaming everyone who does this – after all, it seriously impedes your reactions when driving and what if a celeb (or heaven forbid) a normal person does it whilst your child is playing out the street? Not a nice thought is it. Use of hand held mobile phones in […]
