    Thinking About A New Car

    I sell new cars for a living, and drive a Peugeot e208. I absolutely love it. But I live literally two miles from our showroom and plug it in every Monday to one of our dealerships chargers and it will easily last me until the following week. I retire in two years time. Would I buy an e208 for...

    Thinking About A New Car

    A rapid charger takes 30-35 minutes to put an 80% charge in. That's the maximum you can put in charging this way. How many of the current crop of EV's will do 210 miles in an 80% charge???

    Reliable Second Hand Japanese Car

    Often overlooked, but a reliable small Japanese car is the Suzuki Swift. Not the best for interior trim quality etc. but those little Suzuki engines are bullet proof.

    Vauxhall Corsa 2015 - Full Tyre or Space Saver for Spare?

    Well done! I did this with my daughter recently. She purchased a Peugeot 108 and it had a dent on the inside of one of the alloy wheels that was deemed "dangerous" by the MOT tester. We found an almost new alloy wheel with a brand new tyre on it on the bay for the princely sum of £70.00. Put...

    Vauxhall Corsa 2015 - Full Tyre or Space Saver for Spare?

    If the wheel well is deep enough, a full sized spare no question. Additional weight over a spacesaver??? Negligible and wouldn't make one iota difference to the fuel consumption or handling. I'd go with a steel wheel if the stud pattern matches but you may well pick up a bargain on ebay for an...
