What a fabulous looking car!! I would be sorely tempted with the hybrid, but compared to my daily runabout - a 2018 DS3 3 door, it’s a lot bigger 22cm longer, and let’s not forget the price, probably 35k for a decent spec hybrid model… I was considering the new MG3 hybrid which is about to be...

I would be interested in opinions on the following. I took my DS3 to my local Stellantis dealer for its annual service today. When I collected the car I was told the service book was stamped and left in the car. I drove away and after 10 minutes I thought where did they ,eave the book. It was...

The other day I was parked in St John’s Wood in London. Like so many drivers, I was taking advantage of the benefits of having an EV. For me to park for four hours less than a Pound, plus no Congestion Charge. For the driver of the Maserati parked behind, unless he was a resident - considerably...

Following on the previous post regarding cheapest cars, I thought I would make mention of something I've mentioned before, relating to the ever increasing price of new cars particularly EV's at the 'upper end'. It's wel, known thanks to battery costs a new EV in a relative class, usually costs...

Completely off topic apart from as a result of the events that took place my car (DS3) was broken into. Visiting Asda store in Wembley, I was accused of shop lifting and physically assaulted by the security guard. His reason for suspecting me was because I was leaving the store via the entrance...

This is the future! I think classic cars will still be insurable, but like everything at a price! There will I think be plenty of enterprising companies that will offer technology modules that can be added to older cars to give the insurance provider, and I have no doubt, the government access...

Whilst in France last few days I picked up a tiny. Chip on the windscreen. There is no cracking and it's maybe about a couple of mm across. Does anyone have any experience of these repairs, it seems Autoglass are the biggest at this sort of thing, and can give any opinions? It maybe that its too...

Many on here may not understand the title, but I refer to a YouTube contributor. He is an English guy who is in the very very fortunate position to be able to own a considerable number of some of the newest supercars on sale - his latest acquisition is a Ferrari 296. He has his own storage...

Is it just me, or has the price of the new GT risen by about 50%! Whilst I am in no position to spend 170k on a new car, the new GT, which according to Autocar does a very good job of doing what it always did albeit with a V6 engine, but now costs an awful lot more to buy. Whilst the EV version...

I'm not sure if I am the only one who has noticed this, and gets bothered by it, but it seems the speed that some drivers has dropped to the 15 to 20 mph mark when driving on roads with a 30 mph limit. We are all aware thanks to the absolute lunacy of local Council's that many areas e.g. now all...

To all those, who like me are a little paranoid about where they park their car! I am planning on going to France end June early July, and am looking for advice from those like me who value not getting scraped wheels or door dents from those parked adjacent, which they have found the best. The...

Without meaning to get a reputation as a grumpy old git, always complaining on here about the state of public transport, the London Mayor and ULEZ etc, I'm afraid I must make mention of a problem we all have to suffer from for a greater or lesser extent. The new levels of the state of our...

Many on this forum are lucky enough not to have to travel regularly round London. For travelling by whatever means (involving mechanised methods, and not like some communist China inhabitant on a bicycle, or like some medieval peasant who's only means is to walk!!!) has become like some kind of...

Customer service seems now to be a bonus as opposed to normal practice! It all began with the Covid where companies all too quickly realised that it was the perfect excuse for doing a half hearted job. Unfortunately that is now beyond wearing a bit thin, so now they just continue with half...

And now for something completely different! I am standing in Watford General Hospital A&E with my 93 year old mother who normally lives in a care home (£8,000+ pm) who has dementia. For our £8k she fell off the hoist, and was brought to her local NHS Hospital. I can only describe it as medieval...

As some on here will know, I am rather too fussy to the point of obsession when it comes to maintaining my car’s condition! As a result I spend an age agonising over any blemish, or any work being carried out. Against this back drop when I changed car recently, I was weighing up the pros and...

Whilst this car couldn’t be further from what a Maserati is famed for - Engine and exhaust sound, some on here did express an interest on my experience with my new Genesis Electrified G80 - although they were probably being polite! Having had the new car since beginning of August, yesterday I...

As can be seen by the picture my new car arrived yesterday fresh from 2 Weeks at an excellent PPF/Detailer - Auto-Protek. There level of work and attention to detail is simply second to none, and speaking as a super fussy OCD sufferer, I can thoroughly recommend them! Unfortunately, putting the...

From the title you can guess this is clearly going to be a rant!! On Saturday I stopped for a second in a 'Yellow box' as the cars in front unexpectedly stopped. Sure enough today I received a fine in the post from Brent council! A quick internet search highlighted concerns by the likes of the...

Gentlemen. I am hoping this is this right place, as it is a current model Ghibli I am referring too. As some members maybe aware I am planning on making the shift to EV - Genesis Electrified G80. I did run a topic a little while back for those who haven’t heard of this brand. It seems as though...
