Hi, I hope someone may be able to help - I have told the OH that I will pay for so many driving lessons as she desperately wants to drive, so I just wondered if anyone has any reccomendations on driving schools in the Birmingham area, in particular regarding prices and starting offers.

Ka is still in good nick with full MOT and would still sell privately, I reckon. Found a 58 plate 1.2 Fiesta, 1100 miles, dealer registered, (well-known dealer)…

What would you buy with £5000 cash towards new car plus £2000 scrappage grant
Dear all, being frugal my husband has had his trusty Mazda 626 for approx 12 years. However we are conscious it is getting to the end of it's life eg to keep the boot open he has used a broom handle for the last few years - he has no shame.

Neighbours car rolled into mine!
Last night a car parked opposite mine rolled slowly into the side of my car after the handbrake hadn't been put on tight enough. It has caused some light scratches and scuff marks down the side of my car, along with a small dent where the front and back passenger doors meet. The guy came out straight away, apologised and…

Is a 2000 Rover 25 1.4ie worth £1,795?
I've searched reviews, and got completely contradictory responses - some people love this car, others deride it. Of course, the seller's telling me it's great, and the price does seem pretty good compared to others currently on sale on Autotrader, etc., considering it's got just 45,000 miles on the clock. It's from a small…

First car!
Hello everyone! I have my test in a month and Im getting prepared to pass ;) (then or a couple of months after!). I dont want to spend much over 500 quid in my first few years of car ownership as I imagine it will get bumped and scraped to bits (though will be trying not to of course). So perhaps a bit of Bangernomics is…
