    It’s all a bit confusing imho. The list price of my ICE fiesta last year was £27k. Now Dacia are able to release the electric Spring for £15-16k. Surely an electric Fiesta would sell like...

    Ford do seem to have an incredibly small range of cars at the moment and not a single EV I’d buy. The Mach e looks good but too expensive imho. It’s a shame as my Fiesta ST is just about a year old...

    Electric cars-got to be a viable option now?

    Rather than being the best of both worlds it strikes me that a hybrid may be the worst. All the complexities, frailties and service requirements of an ICE with the additional weight of a small...

    I bought the plastic cased originals for £99 and the steel for £199. They were Seiko diver equivalent priced at the time and TAG was actually more of an aspirational brand then than now imho. ...

    I was really struggling with new varifocal glasses, turns out they were made incorrectly with a much too narrow ‘long distance’ area at the top so I await a new pair.

    I watched the Matt Watson review and it looks absolutely ridiculous. Probably kill or seriously maim anyone who gets run over at 20mph too - how on earth did it pass as suitable for road use?
