Would you happy to pay more tax in order to employ more police? With all the cut backs that have been made, it's down to priorities and ringfencing of money I guess. Outside mine for example, there has been tens of millions spent on cycle lanes, but thats a different ring fenced budget to the police...

Window switches yes, rest no; too in your face.

I took the CX3 to work today a distance of about a mile; the blue light went out before I got there. My, albeit old, 2l Alfa takes much longer for the engine to reach normal operating temperature. Is it right that the blue coolant light should go out so quickly. and if so, how is this possible in su...

Happy Holidays to all

The infotainment screen is so ugly; it realy should fold/slide out of the way when not in use or required.

Having been sat around in my garage for a week she was all dusty, so gave her a quick rinse. None of the door frames were very clean! Have just contacted The Wheel Shop who tell me that the 18In spacersaver they have for an CX5 will not fit the CX3. I am sure the dealer told me it would; who is corr...

The cleaning stuff is pretty much common sense, though I had not heard about the window trick before. What about tips in relation to tech type stuff like auto closing of wing mirrors, trip computers and sat nav Etc. EG I didnt realise for a long time that my Brera windows would not close unless I pa...
