World's First Sports Car Sells for over £500,000
Dubbed as the world's first true sports car, this 1914 Vauxhall 25HP 'Prince Henry' Sports Torpedo Coachwork is one impressive vehicle. A real part of motoring history, it's no wonder it has recently changed hands for more than half a million pounds. Prince Henry's are rare, and the 25HP version even rarer. It was manufactured at a time when motor sport was in its infancy but becoming more popular. It made sense for Vauxhall to create this model and enter into reliability trials. It brou

Have you been a good boy or girl in 2016? I hope so. Santa won't bring you anything nice for Christmas if you've been naughty!

Spread The Cost of Christmas with 0% Finance!
How do you manage your Christmas spending? It's lovely to treat your family and even yourself at Christmas but it does get expensive doesn't it?

Top Ten Most Popular Cars in 2016
Number 10 – Kia Sportage SUV The Kia Sportage has proven to be pretty popular this year. It's a chunky looking car that turns heads and it's a great size too.

When you buy from Kia you also benefit from the fantastic 7 year / 100,00 mile warranty as standard so it's a good choice if you like the peace of mind that brings y

Winter Driving Tips
Most of us drive our cars every day. We just become accustomed to driving and take it for-granted. It's so important to remember just dangerous driving actually can be. While we might feel trepidation before we step onto an aeroplane for our holidays, we think nothing of getting in a car. However, we're statistically far more likely to die in our cars on the way to the airport than actually on the plane. If you were recently involved in rear-end collisions in the state of Rhode Island due to t
