With all the Government bans being announced on petrol / diesel cars - i wonder when and what Ferrari's EV will look and sound like? Although the bans are typically from 2030 onwards, i can see the widespread move to electric happening much much quicker than that. I wonder what all the major...

The car is back from it's huge service. Ran fine on the way back and then.....stalled a few times and then refused to start :-( Anyhow, disconnected the battery and noticed that the left hand "slow down lamp" was illuminated on the dash when the ignition was on? (I thought euro cars didn't...

After detailing for countless years, i've recently been using the Meguiars two stage micro fibre polishing & finishing pads with the correction compound and finishing wax I'll never use another foam pad on a DA again. Outstanding Anyone used this?

Given that most major European countries are insisting that all new cars are 100% emission free from 2025 / 2030 (see my other thread on Tesla as i think the shift will be before this) When will Ferrari show their hand with a 100% emission free car? What's everyone's thoughts as it's certainly...

Having spent a weekend in Amsterdam:wink3: i couldn't help but notice the sheer volume of EV's The Tesla Model S was as common as an E Class. After reading up, it appears that The Netherlands are banning the sale of petrol & diesel new cars as of 2025 (along with Norway, Sweden etc) and Germany...
