  I took the chance to drive my Grandad's Honda Accord SE 2.0 auto last night to the hospital to pick up my Grandma (my own car picked up a flat tyre and I didn't have time to change it - I'm on his insurance under some weird Saga emergency use thing so I'm pretty sure it was legal). Anyhoo - it's X
• Advanced Driving Test - worth the money? 15 Aug 2004 (Forum)
  Evening! Been doing a bit of research into this, since being driven into has recently made me a little bit more well off. Thought it might be fitting (although the crash was in no way my fault, before you start) to spend a small amount of it in getting my advanced driving licence. It looks like

• Advice on driving across Europe 13 Apr 2005 (Forum)
  Hi All In June/July I will be driving across Europe with my wife, to Linz in Austria for my sisters wedding. We're going to take a week each way, and try to see/do as much as possible. I have not driven in Europe at all before, so it's all a bit scary and I thought I'd ask here for any advice
• Test Drives. How did you get the one you wanted? 9 Feb 2012 (Forum)
  Morning again one and all.   Following on from my previous thread (asking for car buying advice) I would like to ask about Test Drives. Until recently  I have always known exactly what car I wanted. 3 x XJ in a row and a RangeRover before that. Test Drive was easy

• Driving in Europe with HID Xenon lamps!! 28 Jul 2014 (Forum)
  I can't believe after all this time of HID Xenon lamps being available on a lot of cars these days that dealers (sales in particular) are not aware that you have to adjust them to drive on the right in Europe. Having looked at a Skoda Superb and a Ford Mondeo, both of which offer Xenon lamps, I

  Well, now that we've got a bit of respite from the damp, grey, blustery weather and are enjoying a snap of 'proper winter, I thought that I'd start a thread of cold weather driving. This year, I've started using the hot water on the windscreen de-icing trick. Fantastic! Thermos of hot

  Hi I have a Zafira B, 1.9 CDTI and recently, when I was going round a roundabout, I heard a mechanical type click. Anyway - did not think much of it until I realised that the car was not driving straight. Basically, if I let go of the steering wheel on a flat/stright road, the steering wheel
• US/UK License and Driving 26 Nov 2007 (Forum)
  but still have a few questions. It would be great if any of you can provide some help. 1.

  We have a 2002 Polo (new shape 1.2 65bhp), but having had some problems, we're considering a change. The problem is, we've not seen anything in its class or price range which compares with it (in terms of how it drives, how solid it feels, how it feels like a bigger car than it is etc.). Have
