• European Breakdown Insurance 30 Jun 2007 (Forum)
  Good evening. If you have breakdown insurance that includes provision of a hire car, would that normally be a near match to your existing vehicle, or is it possible that you'd find yourself trying to cram the contents of a fully loaded Ford Galaxy into a 1.2 Corsa?

• 2 Stroke cars 16 May 2002 (Forum)
  A few years ago there was conjecture that the engine of the future for cars would be the 2 stroke. If I remember correctly Ford converted a fleet of Fiestas which they gave to members of the public for an extended trial. Does anyone know the results of the trial? Presumably a failure?

• More MIA cars... 10 Oct 2001 (Forum)
