    The Wanderer Returns

    OK so it's been five months since I was last here, having pensioned off my C class after 10 years of ownership. I defected to a Kia E-Niro having originally been considering a Hybrid, my research indicated that a full BEV would make more sense. I like many had thought that range was an issue...

    Insurance increase

    Just had my renewal through for my Insurance it seems to have jumped 13% this year. whilst I expect it to gradually increase each year, this does seem rather excessive given the rate of inflation at the moment. Anyone else had any sharp increases in their premiums.

    What's the difference

    I have a bottle of Autoglym Quick Detailer which I keep in the car, but what's the difference between that and a Waterless Wash Wax. I bought a bottle of that a couple of weeks ago and they both seem similar to my non-expert eye.
