Sporty and well bolted together, yet amazingly practical.
Car review of Toyota Celica 1.8 by
stevie69p
Advantages: Sporty looks with great build quality
Disadvantages: A bit low slung to get in and out of.
I'm now on my third Toyota Celica. The previous two were the Gen 6 model and I rustled together the funds to buy a Gen 7, which is my current car.
From the moment that you open the driver's door, the build quality is apparent: solid, frameless doors that ...

Fun, cheap to run and surprisingly spacious
Car review of Fiat Panda 1.2 8v by
stevie69p
Advantages: Cheap to run, easy to park, surprising amount of room inside
Disadvantages: Needs to be driven hard to get the best out of it
I've just recently sold my 2nd Panda and I'm sad to see it go as it has always done whatever I asked of it, from daily commuter car to carrying loads in the back with the seat folded down.
The Active model comes with power steering (including the City bu ...

Not for everyone
Car review of Skoda Fabia 1.2 Tdi (since 2011) by
jankphnor
Advantages: Large boot, fuel-saving
Disadvantages: Weak engine, not much "turbo" in the TDI
For those seeking a no-frills sensible car, this is the perfect choice.
I bought a 1.2 TDI CR Greenline Estate to replace my "old" 2007 1.4 TDI PD Estate and in many ways it's a much better car, in some ways, however, it is a worse car. Well, maybe not " ...

carlz2001
Advantages: Looks, features, relatively low car tax
Disadvantages: Metal part of key doesn't retract, safety sensors too sensitive
I absolutely adore cars and since having two children, I’ve struggled to find a car that I love to drive. Over the last few years we seem to have gone through more cars than hot dinners, there was the Golf, the Megane, then the C4, then the C5 and all in ...

Quality has not let me down
Car review of Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI by
LozzD79
Advantages: Solid and smooth - a real joy to drive
Disadvantages: lack of cup holders
This is my third golf now (2012) and once again, the standard of quality has not let me down. I upgraded from a Golf Standard to this TSi 1.4. The plus points are the little extras - it's faster and it's a joy to drive. It feels like I'm sitting in a comf ...

Disadvantages: No longer a cheap car - but it doesn't need to be.
