Carsource.co.uk - the best car sourcing site

Advantages: Comprehensive, over 148,000 used cars for sale, easy to use
Disadvantages: A lot of adverts, cant take into toilet to read.

...Carsource.co.uk is basically a webiste for sourcing new and used cars accross the UK. I first was aware of this site by clicking for free points on mutualpoints.com, but never really had the use for it until recently when I was asked to help a friend purchase a car. There once was a time when nearly all car purchases were made through publications such as Autotrader and Loot but the balance of power has shifted dramatically over the last few years towards web based search tools such as carsource.co.uk and it does not look to be abating. With this is mind, I sat down and used carsource.co.uk for the first time as a genuine search tool and not just as a way to earn free points. The site. The site itself is very comprehensive in options. You have the ability to primarily search new and used cars, sell your vehicle and even check...

Brilliant infant car seat

Advantages: Excellent for safety, comfort and totally practical
Disadvantages: no negatives for this product

...I used this for my daughter and used it from birth right through to the upper weight limit which is actually higher than most other car seats in this category. She always seemed so content in it and happily napped when travelling. The sun canopy is excellent, great for protecting the baby when driving and carrying about. Sun canopy also stores away easily when not in use, remaining attatched but out for the way. I also bought the easybase which made loading and unloading baby from car very quick and easy - especially when its raining which it so often does here. Also purchased mosquito net & Raincover both excellent purchases and in the UK I certainly needed them. I liked the fact that there were internal pads that could be removed as she grew to enable more comfort and space for her within the seat. Covers are easily removed for washing...

Review of Maxi-Cosi Cabrio Car Seat

An amazing car seat

Advantages: safe, cosy
Disadvantages: none

...Where to buy: This car seat is readily available. You can buy it from all the shops you'd expect to be able to buy them from including Halfords, mothercare, john lewis', toys r us etc. What do they cost: prices vary depending up on offers and stores but usually this car seat retails at £100. How do they attach? This car seat is different to many of the others on the market. It clips onto a base which is attached to your car, This makes it easy to get the car seat in and out of the car without waking up the baby. The car seat base is attached by the seat belt securing it in place and a metal leg which keeps it stable. Are they comfortable? This car seat is very padded and so a nice cosy seat for your baby. It comes with a head hugger which makes it cosy and safe for a newborn. This headhugger can be removed revealing much...

Review of Maxi-Cosi Cabrio Car Seat

great car seat

Advantages: see rview
Disadvantages: expense, heavy

...I bought this when I had my baby as it was apparently the best on the market and I really can't find fault with it at all it has been the most reliable of our baby products and can't rate it highly enough. This car seat is different from others as it is suitable for up to 9 months whilst the majority of others are just up to 6 months. The seat is well padded and has a 'head hugger' so it is safer for newborns. This headhugger can then be removed once your baby is big enough. The straps also can be adjusted once your baby grows so that it is still safe and comfortable. The straps are easy to use- at first they were fiddly but once you have the hang of them then you know what you're doing they're easy! once you have strapped your baby in you then pull on the straps to make them tight so that your baby is safetly in place...

Review of Maxi-Cosi Cabrio Car Seat

Avoid Rip-off New Car Prices

Advantages: Big Savings, Professional and Helpful Service
Disadvantages: None really

...For those of you who are thinking of buying a new car then I would like to introduce you to a way of avoiding paying the over-inflated UK prices and that is to import your own car. I had heard before that it was much cheaper to import a car from Europe than to buy it here but I always thought that it meant travelling to Europe to pick it up and lots of complicated paperwork for the import process. However, more recently a number of car importing agents have appeared on the web which make the process a lot easier than you might imagine. So when my company decided it was no longer going to give me a company car I was faced with the prospect of taking my allowance and buying my own. I wanted to get a good car that would last and as I had been well impressed by driving one before I decided to go for a Saab. At first I looked through...

Review of Auto Source UK Car Importer

You don't have to pay the list price for a car.

Advantages: By shopping around you may get a better deal
Disadvantages: Can be time consuming and we lose out to the Europeans again!

...harmonisation throughout Europe it is not something we should consider. Each state should be free (as it is) to dictate its own fiscal policy without interference from Big Brother Europe. Indeed, the main reason why I am so opposed to European integration is the fact that, as an island nation we will always be on the fringes of a united Europe geographically and nothing will ever change this. This geographical limitation will have a knock on effect on pricing and freedom of movement to and from the UK as additional costs need to be factored in. But, back to cars.... We can all carry on whinging about the prices that we are being made to pay but it doesn't stop us buying. The car is moving away from being a luxury item to a necessity. Remember though, there are ways you can save money on a new purchase... BUY ABROAD If you are...

Review of UK Car Prices

A must-see for all of those car mad boys!

Advantages: The soundtrack
Disadvantages: The characters aren't very strong

...When I first watched this film, I thought it was a loud of rubbish. At the time I was convinced it was probably the worst Disney film that I had seen and wasn't bothered about watching it again any time soon. Noah had other plans and I am currently watching it for the hundredth time! I am not sure if it's a case of becoming familiar with something and quite liking it but this film has really grown on me. The film is based around a famous race car, Lightening Maclean, who gets lost and finds himself in a small town on Route 66 called Radiator Springs. He ends up having to stay in the town after getting arrested and being ordered to fix the road that he broke as a result of wreckless driving. He is desperate to leave and get back in time to win the Piston Cup but as time goes on he makes some great friends. Will he stay and build...

Review of Cars (DVD)

Mervelous car polish . . .

Advantages: Polish anytime, any weather.
Disadvantages: Price?

...Being a skinflint, I got mine cheap off a market stall, As it was a bargain, I decided to give it a go, instead of the stuff I usually use - Car Plan, although I have always been happy with it, I have heard people "wax" lyrical about Mer but never used it. Glad I gave it a try now. The polish is suitable for all paint finishes, including metallic, you can also use it on your caravan, bike, upvc windows or anywhere else you need a good shine. The polish comes in a plastic container, coloured blue, in the following sizes, half litre, one litre, three litres, and the massive trade size of ten litres. Recommended retail prices range from £11 for the smallest, sixteen Pounds and thirty-one for the 1 & 3 litres, then up to a whopping £71 for the large. These prices are expensive, but the polish is very good, and does tend to go a long way...

Review of Mer Car Polish

Cars - KACHOW!!

Advantages: Great film and fantastic characters - What a film
Disadvantages: None - Just make sure you watch it!

...Sitting down infront of the TV with my brother revising for my A Levels, my brother then decided to go and get the Pixar boxset from our DVD collection. After moaning that I did not want to watch Cars for several minutes because I thought it would be a terrible film, my brother put the film on anyway. It was his choice. He is 5 years older. How lucky was I that he decided this for us. What a film. Cars is again a great hit by Pixar and one I would recommend to all families, for kids and adults. It is a fantastic film with great cast voices and is full of hilarious characters. I cant remember the last time I had so much fun 'revising'. "Brief Plot" Cars is set in a world filled by anthropomorphic cars and other vehicles. The plot is about a rookie car racer called Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) who is part of the infamous...

Advantages: see opinion
Disadvantages: price

...Buying a car is one of the most expensive purchases most people are going to make so the publishers have made a magazine which makes buying a new car much easier that any other mag in the country. It contains the most popular cars in the UK e.g. Ford Fiesta, Peugeot 206,Toyota Yaris and one of my faviroutes, Fiats wonder car the Punto!! The contenders are nicely laid out beside one another, and then the test is started!. The cars are marked out of 5 for each rating. The cars are tested for the following. Performance . Ride and handling . Refinement . Behind the wheel . Equipment . Space . Reliability...
