• Driving standards following lockdown 14 Apr 2021 (Forum)
  This isn't your typical "all the drivers around me are m****s" thread.  Or rather, I'm the m****. After hardly driving for a year, I'm very aware that I need to concentrate more on my driving as I restart.  As an example, I'd forgotten how to engage the cruise control

  I have a Mitsubishi Colt 2007 semi automatic that has developed a loud whurring/whining noise whilst driving. It starts more or less as soon as you begin to drive, gets louder when accelerating and quieter when decelerating. It's loudest around 40/45mph then gets drowned out by the engine noise

• Improved driving standards - pah! 13 Oct 2006 (Forum)
  Recent figures have indicated that annual road deaths in the UK have gone down - and put alongside the general increase in miles driven - the conclusion was that driving standards must have been raised. Was anyone else on here driving down the A1 in the Stamford/Peterborough area between about 6
• Ugly, ugly, UGLY drive way! 13 Dec 2005 (Forum)
  Sort of a driving thread. Was walking to visit my good old mum the other day. On route I saw the most ugly, ugly UGLY drive way. Basically, you have a bog standard red brick 1930's end of terrace house with a frontage of no more than a Mondeo's depth. The 3 sided brick wall was constructed
• Driving down risk in the community. 23 Jun 2005 (Forum)
  Today while driving my company Transit I was severely cut up by a red Ford Fusion belonging to East Sussex fire and Rescue. He caused me to brake hard. I gave him the benefit of the doubt as we all make mistakes. However, as I followed him up to a set of lights in the straight ahead lane which were
• Driving - Naples + Sorrento area 22 May 2004 (Forum)
  I've just got back from a week in Sorrento and thought it might be helpful to post some views and comments. Driving is pretty devil may care with mindless overtaking etc but we didn't see one accident during our stay. That said, 9 out 10 cars have one or more corners damaged and/or scrapes down
• Am I Victor Meldrew? 2 Apr 2003 (Forum)
  My neighbour has recently started parking about 6 inches to a foot on my drive which is connected to his drive. This is so he has enough room to park his other car on his drive without having to move the first out of the way. I can still get both of my cars on my drive but have to park them

• Test Drives 11 Jan 2003 (Forum)
  about an hour I started to get back ache, after 90 minutes I was so uncomfortable I had to stop. For this reason I'm very keen to get a decent 2 hour test drive before commiting myself, but both Ford and VW are only willing to offer me a glorified spin round the block. Has anyone got any advice about
• Buying a left hand drive car over here to drive ov 28 Mar 2001 (Forum)
  We are about to move to France and I will be looking to buy a couple of local cars to replace our UK ones. However, it occured to me that it might be worthwhile to buy a used left-hand drive car in the UK as I understand they tend to be much cheaper. We could then import them into France. I have
