Your Vehicle Can Still Look Good, Even During The Winter…
BMW E34 M5 as a winter car:
Most of our customers would prefer to keep their nice set of summer wheels separate from their winter tires for fear of exposing them to salt and grime. Steel wheels are perfect to use for winter driving because they’re inexpensive and only temporary. Yet, they aren’t the sportiest addition to your vehicle. To help this out, we have wheel covers to conceal the steel wheels and to enhance their appearance. And remember, your summer wheels and tires will be stored away in the garage, protected from the harsh winter elements. Continue reading
Mount your winter tires easily
Winter tires in action:
Making the change from summer tires to winter tires can be simplified if you keep your winter tires mounted on a second set of “winter” wheels. they’re ready to be bolted right on the car in a matter of minutes, instead of having to take your winter tires somewhere to be installed on your “summer” wheels.
My motorcycle and me – speedy adventure
Suzuki Katana GSX600F:
I am looking at my motorcycle. Not actuallyit’s parked a 10-minute walk away but in my mind, where it’s as clear as the memory of my childhood home. I see the speedometer, which has registered 100 miles per hour many times. I glance at the tachometer, taking note of the 7500-rpm mark, where acceleration becomes a giddy blur. I look down at the footpegsthree inches of rubber-covered metal that suspend my feet above the scrolling asphalt. Finally, I pull back to take in the whole picture: a simple yet refined machinemy Suzuki Katana GSX600F.
Who Does The Electric Eco Car Future Belong To?
Mayor Boris Johnson had pledged to install 22,500 electric car charging points across London, with 7,500 in place by 2013 of which 6,000 were to be installed at work places, 500 on the streets, 330 in public car parks, 50 at Tube stations, 140 in supermarket car parks and 120 at car clubs. This £60 million scheme was intended to make London the “Electric Car Capital of Europe” , but, following the Spending Review, the mayor’s earlier pledge of £20 million funding has now been cut back to just £7 million. Boris also promised that no Londoner would be more than a mile from a charging point. At present there are only around 250 charging points in London with just over half of them funded by Transport for London (TfL), to service the capital’s 1,700 electric vehicles currently registered.
There’s no doubt that the specification of Electric Vehicles (EV’s) is improving all the time. Ranges are steadily being extended and their performance is getting closer to regular cars. The various technologies are still sparring for dominance and projected retail prices seem to be relatively high (£30,000 is suggested for a Plug in Prius for example). That’s reflected in sales of new electric cars in the UK, which plummeted by nearly 90% in 2009 compared with their peak in 2007, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. Nearly half of the electric vehicles sold last year were the tiny G-Wiz, which is ineligible for a government grant scheme thanks to its low speed and limited range. Continue reading

Another Carhenge art
Carhenge art:
This attraction is preserved and enhanced by a local support group. Donations are appreciated. Carhenge replicates stonehenge as to dimensions and orientation. It was conceived by jim renders who once lived on this farm. Constructed during a family reunion, it was dedicated on the summer solstice of 1987. As to “why”, the artist declines comment, saying, “plane, loqui, deprehendi.”Looks like Carhenge turned 10 this year!
