  1. I've never driven a Maserati; the last Alfa Romeo I drove was a hire car and I loved the handling but the driving position was a nightmare for me.

    Hopefully they have solved this; I doubt I would ever fork out for this car new but a couple of years old it may be worth looking at.

    These sports cars are amazing but with the mega expensive rims and low profile tyres you know that on our roads you are going to be spending a few quid on repairing and replacing rims and tyres. The size of the pot holes here always guarantee that.

  2. Best

    Toyota RAV4 2002

    Still on original tyres at 78,000 miles. Still don't need changing.

     

    Worst

    Lexus IS300 - 5,000 miles odd. I took them to Tony at STS in Watford in 2004 and due to excessive wear on the inners with the supposedly correct factory settings I had to replace all four tyres.

    Tony worked out the new values and before long people were bringing their Lexus to STS from far and wide to get their geometry sorted. I tried to claim the cost of the tyres from Lexus GB but they were not having any of it!

     

    the second set of tyres lasted a lot longer

  3. the statistics for different jobs are very unpredictable - builder costs more to insure than a bricklayer who costs more than a carpenter. supermarket jobs can vary as well so if your job has more than one name you can save by experimenting. 

    if you are a mobile dj or nighclub worker then you will be paying more than any other type of worker.
