vehicles

A vehicle (from Latin vehiculum) is a machine designed for self propulsion, usually to transport people or cargo, or both. Vehicles include wagons, bicycles, motor vehicles (for example, motorcycles, motor cars, trucks, buses and powered wheelchairs and scooters for disabled people), railed vehicles (trains, trams), watercraft (ships, boats, underwater vehicles), amphibious vehicles (screw-propelled vehicles, hovercraft), aircraft (planes, helicopters, aerostats) and spacecraft.Land vehicles are classified broadly by what is used to apply steering and drive forces against the ground: wheeled, tracked, railed or skied. ISO 3833-1977 is the standard, also internationally used in legislation, for road vehicles types, terms and definitions.

    Stolen Keyless Vehicles

    I read in todays press car theft of keyless vehicles is increasing rapidly, thieves are using sophisticated devices to intercept the signal between the owners key and the car! I feel very vulnerable as my car lives on my drive. Can this be stopped in anyway?

    Speed and time saved

    Quite an amusing video describing how little difference going really fast (70+) compared to say 60 makes when travelling. Possibly quite relevant to an EV which gets decidedly less efficient at higher speeds. Play at full size if possible for better viewing

    Delay paying £190 car tax on EV until April 2026 (action needed before the end of March 2025)

    Hi, in April 2025, EV cars switch from £0 per year car tax to £190. If your car is registered in March, you'll avoid paying it next year. But if registered in April, May or after, you just miss the cut-off and will pay £190 on renewal next year. This method delays it for a year to March 2026...
