You Can Lead A Horse To Water…

As the old saying goes, you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink. Long before cars, vans and HGVs ruled the road, horse and cart was the prominent mode of transport for those who could afford it. These days, you might catch a few sideways glances if you popped down ... Read More

Yellow Submarines, Del Boy And A Rubber Duck…

The colour yellow is pretty iconic when it comes to vehicles. I’m instantly thinking of The Beatles’ Yellow Submarine, Del Boy Trotter’s Reliant Regal, and Bumblebee from The Transformers. I could go on all day, but you get the point! So, when there was a poll to name a new official car colour for Volkswagen, ... Read More

You Can’t Park There…

If you’ve ever parked in one of those giant car parks at theme parks, at the airport or outside of a sports stadium, you might have forgotten where you parked. We’ve all been there – it says ‘Zone N’ somewhere nearby but now it’s dark and you’re wondering where you left the car… Well, that’s ... Read More

Stay Safe This Christmas

The holiday season is upon us, which means it’s a time for family, joy, and celebration. (And for mince pies!) But it’s also a time when the roads are busy in wintery conditions and that can be dangerous. With the hustle and bustle of the festive season as we all rush around trying to get ... Read More

Up, Up And Away…

At this time of year, magical vehicles are to be expected… But when the particular brand of magic is less Santa’s sleigh and more lifting a 4x4, you might just raise an eyebrow. Of course, once upon a time lifting a car and relocating it to a new parking spot was a practical joke you ... Read More

Honk If You… Believe In Free Speech?

Head to any major city centre, find a busy roundabout and you’ll hear the familiar noise of hundreds of motorists furiously beeping their horns at each other. Like an orchestra made-up entirely of cars, vans, and HGVs. Beeping your horn is the traditional warning sign that another driver’s doing something dangerous or that you’re heading ... Read More

A Missing Forklift, A Police Chase, And One Big Question

For any fleet owner, keeping track of your vehicles is a given. Knowing who’s driving which vehicle, what route they’re on, when they need servicing and when they’re due for replacement is all pretty essential. But then again, you probably don’t expect a 12-year-old to commandeer one, do you? That’s precisely what happened in Ann ... Read More

What Am I Supposed To Run This On… Thin Air?

It might sound like a sarcastic response to someone presenting you with a car with no fuel or a flat battery… But thin air might just be the next big thing in fuel technology. Environmental concerns have driven the search for alternative fuels for more years than I’d care to count and while it might ... Read More

Steering Wheel Bling’s A Big No-No, Apparently

Car customisation is a huge business. For some people, making their vehicles uniquely theirs is important, whether that’s to take to car meets, show off to their friends or just because they can. It might be tinted windows, new spoilers, customised alloy wheels, low riders, or a custom paint job. Or apparently, it might be ... Read More

A High-Octane… Wedding?

Some things go together seamlessly – fish and chips, Ant and Dec, pumpkins and Halloween. But others are a less conventional marriage. And in this case, it’s literally a marriage in an incredibly unconventional location AND situation. Because a couple got married at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway in a 10-second pitstop at a recent ...
