Major Savings Could Be Made On Motoring Costs Posted By : Abbi Rouse
2008-04-02 16:56:00 Telling mistruths in an attempt to reduce car insurance costs could actually exacerbate financial problems for motorists, it has been suggested. Personal finance is the application of the principles of finance to the monetary decisions of an individual or family unit. It addresses the ways in which individuals or families obtain, budget, save and spend monetary resources over time, taking into account various financial risks and future life events. Components of personal finance might include checking and savings accounts, credit cards and consumer loans, investments in the stock market, retirement plans, social security benefits, insurance policies, and income tax management.

Taxman Can?t Stop Our Motoring Love Affair
2008-03-17 22:14:00 It seems no matter how high the prices we have to pay become, nothing can slow down the UK's love affair with motoring.New statistics from a car insurance comparison website reveal Labour has increased fuel duty by 19 per cent since coming into power in 1997. Yet during the same period, car ownership in the UK has increased by 25 per cent.Fuel duty is due to rise again in October despite a brief reprieve in Alistair Darling's first Budget. The additional charge will add around 16 a year to a Nissan Micra driver's fuel bill. Nevertheless, even in the face of additional increases in road tax, excise duty and car insurance premiums, motorists show no signs of abandoning their vehicles.As driving is, for most, a necessity rather than a luxury, the advice from industry experts is that motorists should do whatever they can to cut costs. This could include car sharing to split fuel expenses with a colleague or walking/cycling on journeys of less than five miles.One of the easiest bills ...

Best Motoring: Lexus IS-F vs. BMW M3 vs. Nissan Fairlady Z vs. Honda S2000
2008-03-11 04:10:00 When I found out about this Best Motoring video pitting the Lexus IS-F against the BMW M3, Nissan Z, and the Honda S2000, I didn’t expect to see a repeat of yesterday’s video result, with the IS-F blowing the doors off the other cars. Too bad the video plays like a poorly staged mock race: It’s quite clear from the IS-F tachometer display that the driver really had no clue what he was doing, late/poor shifting is going to kill you in any race. Not only that, the M3 was driven by Keiichi Tsuchiya, known in Japan as “the Drift King”, and was clearly head and shoulders above any of the other competitors. Really, this wasn’t a race at all.
