I'll tell you the taxi I really don't want to ride in - the one where the driver has ruined the ride by fitting sodding enormous wheels.

Of course, the benefit of both the 2CV and the Multipla is that you can either flip down or completely unbolt the seats in about 20 seconds to hugely expand the luggage capacity.
I'm a Brit. I hugely prefer TGUSA to TGUK.
It shouldn't be applied to anybody.
I feel like Arrows' inclusion is a little unfair. They didn't have a win in all those starts, but they certainly scored points in that time, unlike dozens of other F1 teams. They generally qualified for most (if not every) race in the 107% era too.
And they came very close to winning with Damon Hill at Hungary in 1997.…
The screen is one of the few things I dislike about the CLA and A-Class. Though as someone said further up, I can't see how they could have integrated it without it making the dash huge and bulky.
The worst thing about the screen isn't its design though. It's the fact the damn thing creaks as it heats up and cools…
I'd not go as far as saying it's "unreal". They had it at Geneva too. It's just a regular Lamborghini really, if you can say such a thing of Lamborghinis.
Here's a different spin on it, albeit one probably not that important to many consumers: the feeling of space. Most cars are so enclosed now by high center consoles and small windows that it's nice when cars (mostly minivans now, and even those are changing, it seems) don't cocoon you from other passengers.
At least…
This is why digital speed readouts in cars caught on, isn't it?
In fairness to the TPMS thing, it did one time get me to check the tires to find an actual defect, potentially saving me a blowout.
Went on vacation to the U.S. last year. Road trip - first leg was Chicago to Vegas, by a convoluted northerly route that took in Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah etc. Driving through…
I've not got a point in particular - I don't disagree that it's the Mazda driver's fault, but I can see how a wide, low car, matte-black taking up quite a bit of the road could catch another driver by surprise.
My only insurance dealings have been when my car got stolen. The insurance side of it was fairly painless. The car getting stolen itself was a complete bitch.
Indeed, though I'm not sure how it changes what I originally said - to pass the parked vehicle, the Lambo may well have been out onto the other side of the road - I suppose I could have been more precise too, but that's what I meant by "wide in the road". It's a wide car, taking up even more space by crossing into the…
To clarify, I live in the UK, but I'm not fully clued-up on insurance since thankfully I've not had to deal with it that often. I'd be surprised if the Lambo driver didn't take some of the rap for this incident though, given his speed (judging by how far he bounced down the road it strikes me as quicker than 30 mph).
It wasn't a one-way road - note the taxi facing the other direction towards the end of the video. And given the car parked by the curb, I expect the owner of a wide car like this one would be out even further than a regular vehicle would - probably enough to surprise a driver not paying full attention, like the one in…
It's very easy to forget how weak and floppy the human body is until you hear stories like this. Real-world accidents are pretty nasty. People don't just ragdoll when they're hit by cars. Bits break and fall off quite regularly too.
Think the same applies in the UK. Mazda driver was realistically at fault, though I suspect the Lamborghini's extra speed and the fact it was probably wide in the road to avoid the parked Qashqai probably had something to do with it too.
