Bad Credit
Ok so we know that here in the UK we love to spend money and that can often leaves us with credit card bills and exceeded overdraft limits! After a while, things can catch up on us and we therefore get “in debt”. Yes, the dreaded word; debt! With debt and a lack of repayments being made, we are then tarnished with having bad car credit. This is then recorded on our credit report, which is available to all financial institutes and subsequently we are given a lower ‘credit score’.

Dacia Still Alive
In Western Europe it is probably only older drivers who may remember the origin of the brand name of Dacia. Previously a Romanian car producing company, and now a part of Renault, they concern themselves with making low-cost cars. Recently Dacia decided to introduce its new car to the car supermarket.

All New Cars Should Be Electric
A new study by the Oireachtas Committee into Climate Change is calling on the UK government to set more ambitious targets on increasing the use of electric vehicles. New electric cars are seen as environmentally friendly, leaving virtually no pollution and, still, able to cover long distance and offer comfortable travelling standards. The committee also would like to see the project fast-tracked to ensure all new cars on sale by the year 2020 are electric. Such action would also stimulate operations of establishments that convert fuel cars into electric ones.
