According to ABI, insurance premiums are indeed up year on year, and they’ve been rising steadily over the last few quarters. The study shows that, in Q4 2022, the average price paid on r

Frustrating Car Insurance Black Hole
I have my car on a private lease, from Kinto One. I previously had my Toyota RAV4 with them and had GAP insurance cover in addition to my normal cover. I got my normal car insurance for the NX with NFU, as they offered new car replacement for 2 years in the event of a total right off or total loss due to theft; however, I have just discovered this is only for owners/buyers of cars. Since I lease my car, they will only pay the leasing company the 'market value'! This means I will be responsible f
Car dies after turning engine off but then comes back to lif
Recently been having this issue. I drive somewhere and all goes normally. When I park up and turn the engine off, the car immediately dies - as in no electricity whatsoever. But after a minute or so, it comes back and all is normal. I’m guessing my Battery has gone bad or some connection has corroded but wanted to see if anyone has any better idea of what the issue is. For better context, the first time it happened it only took about 5 seconds for power to be restored. It seems that every t
Improved hybrid technology
If this account is accurate it will transform hybrid technology and although models are not planned to come to the UK (yet?), you can bet your bottom dollar that the Japanese, American and Japanese will want to take models apart to see how it's done. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/cars/news/the-cure-for-range-anxiety-byd-says-its-new-hybrid-cars-can-go-for-1-200-miles-without-needing-gas-or-recharging/ar-BB1nlW4d?ocid=mailsignout&pc=U591&cvid=9825cc68d67c48f7a4e2ee8bc6f3310a&ei=11

Out with the old, in with the new - New NX 350h Owner
I’ve had my eye on an NX350h since late 2021, but wasn’t far enough into the ES to make any change until recently. 2016 - 2019 I had a Lexus IS300h Advance 2019 - 2021 I had a Lexus ES300h F Sport with Takumi Pack 2021 - 2024 I had a Lexus ES300h F Sport with Takumi Pack Today I took delivery of a Lexus NX 350h Takumi Its safe to stay that pound for pound, I couldn’t find a match in any other brand that delivers reliability against cost
Hybrid Battery charge state
Apologies if this has an obvious answer but, after having driven my wife's NX300H for a few weeks, I've realised that I can never get the Battery to full. It has 8 bars and the max I get is to 6. This is regardless of how I'm driving (e.g. gently and slow, or deliberately slightly faster to get the engine to recharge it, or coasting as much as possible, or 10/15min on the m'way etc etc). The only thing I can think is that Lexus may be doing what apple do with their iPhones. Overnight c
