    Considering a road trip to Puglia next year - anyone done it?

    We did a similar journey last August. We came from the Midlands and drove down to Colmat for our first overnight stop. From there we drove through Switzerland on the second day and spent an afternoon and evening on Lake Como, staying at a B&B overnight. Then onward on the third day down to...

    Going to France - Best way for your car!

    I've used both quite a few times now. The ferry is nice for the view of the white cliffs but slow. I prefer the tunnel. The lanes are narrow in the standard carriage but ok as long as you take due care. As an added bonus the tunnel is more flexible with departure times. Never had any delays on...

    Indy service

    I can vouch for Vic and James at Migliore Cars Bromsgrove. I've used them for various services on my Gransport over the last 8 years and always found them friendly, knowledgeable and reasonably priced. In my experience they have always been able to assist with any issues I've had and saved me...

    3200 exhaust options

    Don't know about the sound but Supersprint offer aftermarket exhaust options for the 3200. Price on demand though so could be pricey. A good custom exhaust manufacturer could make something up for you and tune the sound to your liking.

    Crossing the Continent

    We came through the Swiss border last Saturday and there is a lane at the border crossing point where you can buy a vignette. There was no queue and the whole process was quick and easy. Also cheaper than buying online before you go

    Hot hatch choices (Golf vs Hyundai?) for a new daily

    We had a Golf GTi performance pack and swapped it out for a 308 GTi. The 308 is the lightest of the current hot hatches and we find it much more entertaining to drive than the Golf. Compared to the Golf it drives much more like an old school hot hatch, for a turbo engine it loves to rev. It...

    Migliore cars in Bromsgrove have serviced my car for years and I've never been anything other than happy with them.

    Formula 1 Qualifying F1

    This situation would be easily avoided it the rules had some common sense in them. For example why does the offending car (Verstappen) get the chance to choose where he gives the position back to Hamilton (supposedly the beneficiary) Surely it makes more sense that he should give the position...

    Formula 1 Qualifying F1

    Was glad both drivers finished the race relatively unscathed. I feel the race direction has been poor and a lack of clear guidance has allowed drivers too much room to "interpret" the rules. The fact is every time Lewis has attempted to overtake Max it has been the same story - Max braking too...
