An advert in the latest EVO caught my eye, on the inside back cover was an advert for Vredestein Tyres, offering 2 'sports' tyres designed by Giugiaro. I personally, love the look of the Eagle F1 DSG3, but they are also an exceptional tyre, coming first in the EVO group tyre test last year and from personal experience, they have performed very well offering a high level of grip under most weather conditions, except snow, where they are dreadful, in addition to offering a good level of comfort and wear rate, the D3s apparently being better in this catagory than my old D2s, I shall wait and see about that one. So you can make a good looking tyre perform equally well. …

Get another car!!!!!! I was a little worried about getting another car, because it means, more tax more insurance, more maintaince another MOT and would I really save that much money after it all. But I put £28 of petrol in my Corsa, which filled it up, done over 100 miles and I have not even used a 1/4 of the tank yet. Makes a difference from £20 lasting 100 miles and only just.! One problem though, is its damn slow. :( but in the long run well worth it. Any one else find having a 2nd car easier on the pocket? Stuart

Bored so I thought I'd tell you a little story..... I had a fun night last night. I found that my drivers headlamp bulb had given up. So I decided to go straight to halfords to get a new one. Pulled up outside and unscrewed the headlamp cap at the back, uncliped the prong and struggled like a mad man in a stright jacket trying to get it out. What knob designed the holder anyway ???. I went into Halfords and bought a torch set. Went back out and again struggled with the bulb. I'm standing there thinking this is fooking stupid !!!!. I didn't realise that there was a smaller clip hidden below :o To cut a long story short I went into Halfords and looked up the bulb…
