Ever heard of a 23-seater car?

Ever heard of a 23-seater car?

When it comes to cars, we’re used to the standard variations. I’m talking about hatchbacks, SUVs, 4x4s, estates, coupes, 4 seaters, 5 seaters, 7 seaters and a few other variations. Of course, there’s always the occasional unusual vehicle like the three-wheeled Robin Reliant, but generally we’re used to what we know. So, what if I ... Read More
 
It’s Not Quite James Bond…

It’s Not Quite James Bond…

When I think of cars on water, my mind immediately goes to James Bond. Of course, the Lotus Esprit from The Spy Who Loved Me way back in 1977 was a futuristic vision that’s not likely to come to fruition any time soon… But amphibious vehicles ARE a thing – as long as you’re willing ... Read More
 
More Vehicles Than People?!

More Vehicles Than People?!

A furrowed brow, a strong Stetson, cowboy boots and a stern look.  That’s what I associate with Westerns, anyway – usually Clint Eastwood sauntering around the wild west and stopping by a few saloons on the way. But it’s very much a fantasy portrayed in movies, rather than real life… right? Well, passengers in Detroit, ... Read More
 
I’m Not Sure I’m Insured For That…

I’m Not Sure I’m Insured For That…

They say that owning a car is an expensive choice – and there’s times when that’s definitely true. MOTs, services, flat tyres, chipped windscreens and even filling up and general maintenance can add up. And when you’re running a fleet, you’ve got more than just one or two vehicles to worry about! Then again, you’d ... Read More
 
Two paws on the wheel

Two paws on the wheel

You hear about some pretty remarkable stuff that goes on when people are driving. Ask any fleet driver and they’ll have no shortage of bizarre tales… Well, in this case, it’s a bizarre tail. Because when a police officer approached a vehicle after pulling it over for speeding, he found that the driver had four ... Read More
