What is the difference between a car service and MOT?
Every driver is familiar with the terms "service" and "MOT." Most people are aware that a car service in Reading and a MOT serve the same purpose. Both involve a professional set of eyes inspecting your vehicle with the ultimate goal of sending you out on the road with a fully functional and safe vehicle.

2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Body Features
Last month, Mitsubishi rolled out an official statement that got rise to a heated discussion. According to the official statement, the car maker will launch the next-generation 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander this year. The 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander is expected to carry the hot-stamped ultra-high-strength steel in the passenger cage, which marks the first application of the new tech by automaker. The Mitsubishi added that the use of the light, strong substrate allowed Mitsubishi to save about 50 pounds in the body-in-white, compared to the original and typical steel. A diagram about the configuration of Mitsubishi shows that it has 1,470-megapascal “door rings” which is made of the ultra-high-strength steel for the A-, B- and hinge pillars, frame rails and part of the roof rails. The Mitsubishi buyers will also encounter other ultra-high-strength steels within the body-in-white in the front bumper beam. It stands to draw a conclusion that high-strength steel occupies a large proportion of the body-in-white in the 440-590 MPa range.

Challenger Club
In January of 2020, I signed a lease on a 2020 Dodge Challenger GT AWD. Prior to my current car, I had been driving a Mazda 3, and although it was a reliable car, it just wasn’t what I wanted. I ended my Mazda lease a few months early and signed for my Dodge. I couldn’t wait to drive my car everywhere but the world had other plans. My state shut down less than two months into my lease and, by the time I had the for six months, I barely had 3,000 miles on her. Still it is a decision that I would make a thousand times over again.

Three Problems I Solved By Buying a Brand New Car
Seeking advice on financing a new vehicle can be frustrating. Many financial experts simply say “DON’T DO IT!” While it’s true that new vehicles depreciate quickly—or, as they say, “as soon as you drive them off the lot”—millions of new vehicles are financed every year. So what gives? Are there that many people making bad financial decisions, or are the experts being short-sighted?

In Praise of the British Roadster
My dad was not a rich man. His father was an oilfield roughneck who survived the Great Depression and died when daddy was just ten years old. His mom died when he was 20. After that he was completely on his own, living off a meager salary as an elevator operator at the Texas State Capitol building while putting himself through college.

Why Do Cars Become Like Humans?
This is going to feel weird writing and I want to clarify I have no interest in pursuing romantic relationships with automobiles. Over the last few weeks since my car wrecked and I was placed in a rental, I've started to slowly realize and understand the weirdly human attachment people can sometimes feel towards their personal chunks of metal.

This Car Saved My Life
Growing up I have always had a love for Nissans and the whole Z family. I told myself one day I would own a Nissan Z. It was difficult being a broke college student going to nursing school and working at a yogurt shop, but I managed to save enough to afford a 350z. That is when I named her Sally.
