I recently added my girlfriend to my insurance for a trip to London so we could share the drive.
It was going to be £18 per week or £26 to add her for the remainder of the policy. So I just added her for the remainder of the policy (about 1 month).

Hi all,
Hope everyone is good. I have done 12k in my clio dci 1.5. Its first service isnt due until 18k.
I am worried that the pads will be gone long before that. I would rather spend a few ££ just now and get them replaced rather than having to but new discs as well when its too late...
Hi,
I had an accident around 1 and a half years ago. When my insurance company sent me my renewal I was very surprised as it was a lot cheaper than I expected. After studying it for a while I realised the reason that it was so cheap was because they had stated that I had 1 year no claims...
Hi,
The oil indicator on my clio aid the oil was at half way. I have had the car for 11k miles now from new so thought I should top up. I checked the dipstick and it was also about the half way point between the min and max levels.

Hi All,
