euroncap site

What a great site, I just found the Euroncap site -http://www.euroncap.com/home.aspxHave a look at the tests, the videos are brilliant and really brings it home on what can happen in a big crash. They now have pole tests which is pretty horific for head injuries. I was looking at the Ford Focus and noticed that the airbags were powerful enough to break the windscreen.

53 MPG

Continues to sip the fuel.. my cross country commute can be done at around 44-45mpg, and my trips to London are always low 50's.. which is impressive.

Combined with the lower fuel price, using a shell mastercard and drivers club, has made a massive difference to my monthly costs.. compared to this time last year it's probably £300per month. I don't know how I afforded the Volvo XC70.
