Sadly, this means that the children of today are going to be spending big money on pristine, low mileage Ford Escape’s in 25 years time.

Seriously, why are they recommending SUV’s? They may be better in the event of a crash, but they are much more likely to be involved in a crash, especially rollovers.
Recently, I was driving my Civic along a country road at 60mph (which is the legal speed limit on most country roads in the UK). A VW Up pulls up to a junction at the side of this road, and stops. And just as I’m going past, he pulls out, straight into the side of my car. I managed to keep it on the road at least, but…
All I can say is this- in its current condition, its not Fit for road use.
Don’t know which generation of MR2 you’re buying, but if its a 3rd generation MR2, be wary of a rusty cross-member. Its hidden beneath a plastic tray, so it often goes through MOT’s undetected.
Dumb idea. Not a whole lot of people want electric cars, so why phase out your entire range in favor of them?
NP. Due to the quality of the restoration, it looks and should feel like a time-capsule 10k mile car, yet cost a fraction of the price. And because it already has a lot of miles on it, you wouldn’t be too bothered about adding more.
True, but the extra weight would affect SUV’s more, because they will be carrying the extra weight much higher.
Can’t find much on the rounding of the cam loabs. It seems to be a problem which can pop up, as opposed to something which certainly will happen. They’ve mostly been reliable.
I’ve seen the lap times of cars in previous years, and lap times are inconsistent. For example, the Charger set a fastest lap of 1 minute 36.79 seconds in this most recent test. But in 2013, the Charger set a fastest lap of 1 minute 33 seconds. And in 2016, the Hemi RWD Charger did 1 minute 36.31, and the AWD version…
The Ford Police Interceptor Utility is fast in a straight line. Doesn’t mean much if a 90's Taurus can lose it by simply making a turn. SUV’s are too top-heavy to be any good in pursuits. If I was in charge of ordering new cars for a police department, I’d order Charger Pursuits with the Hemi.
Cars designed for young people always fail, because most young people don’t have much money.
Pumping the brakes isn’t the best technique. You should find the point just before the wheels lock, and hold the brake pedal at this point.
Can’t say that I’m not worried about Mercedes-Benz, replacing their CEO with an accountant instead of another engineer. Engineering is what MB is all about, and the last time that accountants had too much control at MB, we ended up with the with rust-prone cars with electrical problems.
They’re making a car for youths. When has this ever worked? Young people generally have no money, which is why college car parks are filled with rusty Civics and hand-me-down family cars.
I saw an advert online for a BMW 335i for just £3500 from a dealership with a 1 year bumper-to-bumper warrantee. Usually, these go for at least £5k in the UK. The next day, I decided to phone the dealer, so I went back online to find the advert, only to find that it had just been sold.

Its hard to imagine that this is from the same company that gave us the 600 Grosser and the W124.
As someone from the UK, I am disappointed that you can’t drive a small hatchback with a tiny engine. The majority of races in the UK occur in a McDonalds car park after 10pm, with badly modified base-model Vauxhall Corsa’s or Peugeot 206's.
Which axle ratio did the car in the video have- the 3.27 or 3.55?
