Ceramic paint treatments seem to be the 'in' thing at the moment. I have recently changed my car and the salesman at the dealership tried to sell me treatment at £250 which I declined.

Has anyone got any experience of towing with a Mazda CX5 petrol we have a Mazda CX 7 diesel at the moment but we need a new car and don’t really want diesel again or any views on petrol for towing thanks
I have just changed my towing vehicle for a Toyota Hilux 2022, with leaf springs on the back axle. The new models are much less stiff at the back, but it has been suggested that a towball fitted with some kind of shock absorber might be a good idea as firm rear suspension can transmit too much shock to the A frame.

Can anyone enlighten me as to why the FHEV at 183 PS is available as AWD but the more powerful PHEV at 243 PS is only available with FWD.Both models are Automatic CVT.

I am looking at the possibility of a pre-owned Mercedes GLC 220d with the 190ps engine, but what I do not want to do is to lose is the Air Suspension which is a standard feature on the rear of the E250. I have searched and…
My VW Passat 2.0 TDI is coming to the end of its life and it's time to change. My next car will prob be my last and as I'm now in my 73rd year it will be in service for hopefully 10yrs+. The quandary is, do I risk a diesel as given the current political climate it could be unsaleable in a few short years. If I go petrol…
