Advantages: Epic fuel economy Disadvantages: Uncomfortably loud on the motor way
If all you want is a cheap and chearful run about, the Citroen C1 should be a contender. I own a Vibe in red which is the bottom of the range model.
Features, or lack of.
Electric windows, Electric mirrors, Central locking, Air con, are just some of the things this car doesn't have. Which I do miss, but it does keep costs down. Although the integrated CD player and mp3 input are a great touch. The rear window wiper is adequate and another nice touch. As I have the three door version you have to move your seat to allow passengers in, annoyingly you have to find your original seat position from scratch.
Is it safe?
Fingers crossed I've never had an accident in it but according to Euro NCAP it has a four star safety rating. However the Vibe doesn't have side impact airbags unlike the next model up, the Rhythm. What I did think was ...

Advantages: Cheap to buy and insure, nippy and very economical with fuel! Disadvantages: No central locking on the basic model!

I needed something that was cheap to buy and cheap to insure, (as i am a 23 year old man!) It didn't take me long to come across the Citreon C1. The body and most of the interior is exactly the same as the Peugeot 107 and the Toyota Aygo. To look at it is very nice and it is also very nice to drive. Despite its 1.0l engine it is very nippy when pulling off and can pick up speed quite quickly. It is also the most economic car when it comes to fuel i have ever driven!!!! All in all, i am very happy with my purchase. The only downsides are as follows, (although these are all because i bought the basic, and cheapest, model.) It only comes in red!! It has NO CENTRAL LOCKING ...

Advantages: Great Sound Disadvantages: Not within everyones price range.
Kef Q5 speakers.
This is a difficult item to review, because the main emphasis on this product is the ability to produce audible sound. This sound is something, which is difficult to explain without getting too technical. Within that context I will try to explain some of the technical details before the actual description of the Kef speakers, thus hopefully giving you a fuller understanding of the actual product.
Things, which affect you ability to ?Hear the Music?
1 - The Human ear.
The human ear can respond to minute pressure variations in the air if they are in the audible frequency range, roughly 20 Hz - 20 kHz.
The nominal dynamic range of human hearing is from the standard threshold of hearing to the threshold of pain. A nominal range for hearing is 0 decibels to 130 decibels (db), which is considered to be ...
