• Crossland and Grandland - what dreary names 22 Jan 2017 (Forum)
  The Vauxhall Crossland will soon be followed by its bigger brother, the Grandland. Not exactly sparkling names, are they? (Even with that all-important "X" suffix). In a touching gesture of solidarity, the Opel models will use the same names. Not to be confused with... Land Rover. Land

• Headlamp converters 15 Apr 2010 (Forum)
  A friend of mine drives regularly in Europe and he doesn't realize the importance of putting those stickers on the headlights to make them dip the other way.

• Headlights 4 May 2009 (Forum)
  It is important to have two working headlights, and some countries even require you to carry a spare bulb. It is impossible to change a headlight bulb on many (most?) modern cars without specialist equipment and a great deal of effort. I may be wrong, but isn't this a design fault? (I can

  For the first time in 20 years of having company cars thrust upon me i can now buy one for myself. The question is what experience has anyone out there got of the 520d 177 auto as a 30k+ mpa motorway muncher? Ride and economy important, top speed and acceleration not so.

• Aftermarket fog lights on Japanese cars 27 Aug 2007 (Forum)

  How many Backroomers drive with their head in contact with the restraint - i.e. actually using it as a 'headrest'? I'm aware of the importance of correct restraint height, but don't find it comfortable to use them for support when driving. I have noticed that some drivers do adopt a 'rally driver

  After years of telling us we motorists are worse than child-killers, the lentil chewer in chief has bought himself a car. A fistful of excuses as to why he needs one of course. He thinks coaches are ok for the poor and the unemployed, but not for a busy and important person like himself. Sorry
