Since the seven-year warranty was first applied to the Cee’d, 82,884 vehicles have found homes with UK consumers.

Essex boost for car loving home buyers

An Essex council is to make garages and drives bigger on new homes For most of the last decade the UK Government has waged a war on the motorist.

But Ken has moved on from Subaru, and is this year driving the Monster Ford Fiesta Rally WRT car instead.
