• Pre Reg Cars. Is This Description misleading? 5 Sep 2018 (Forum)
  With so many Pre Reg Cars around at the moment because of the new WLTP does anyone think that the term "Pre Reg" Is a misleading description? The car is actually second hand as it has been owned by someone else (the car dealership) It can't be described as used because it hasn't been driven

  manufacturers reduce the number of tyre specs in their ranges (to reduce the number of WLTP tests needed) and is a compromise between the 205/55 R16 and 195/55 R15 variants many of them used to use for their lower and mid-spec cars. Barely any difference otherwise.

• New car prices - Is it just me? 17 Oct 2020 (Forum)

• Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid - Plug in Hybrid - a few real time statistics. 23 Sep 2019 (Forum)
  - fill fuel consumption of 98 mpg.overall. Take out the battery running, the HEV consumption is working out at 64mpg. I don't think that is too bad.
