    My annual 2000 mls road trip

    General Grabber AT's 17" off road tyres.

    4 x 225-65-17 General Grabber All Terrain tyres. Knobbly off road tyres, nearly new so tons of tread, no damage whatsoever, these were on a Honda CRV I purchased but they were too noisy for my liking and I don't count school runs or going to the office as "off roading" so they have to go...

    Sucessful reduction of road noise

    I've always noticed at motorway speeds that there was more a little more road noise coming from the rear on the near side compared to the off side. After 2 years of ownership I decided to investigate by removing the rear seat squab to see if there was anything obvious that could be rectified...

    Cars you've owned that are still on the road

    Greetings, Citizens. I love the MOT history checker & use it all the time. It's got to be one of the most useful things for checking out "potential purchases", how did we live without it? But it has other uses as well, such as amusement. For some reason today I was reminded of a car I used to...

    Planned your 2017 road trip(s)yet?

    Road trip season is approaching, and as the calendar ticked over into March I realised I had been a bit tardy with the planning for a road trip this year. We normally have a European tour of some description, but this year we're whizzing down to the South of France, with just one stopover in...
