<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Maserati has won its first major National Car Award in one of the hardest categories there is: 'Great to Drive' beating Porsche to the wining post.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Unlike more objective categories in the National Car Awards such as 'Reliability' and 'Economy,' the 'Great to Drive' vote shows how the winner has won the hearts as well as the heads of Maserati owners.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">WeLoveAnyCar.com asked Maserati owners what they thought of their cars and the comments are almost universal in their praise for the thrill of the drive. One owner said, "puts a smile on your face each morning as you get into it" </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since 1926 Maserati has gone through four changes of ownership and its course has taken many a hairpin curve.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Whilst the Maserati name has remained in the minds of car enthusiasts for years, the brand's troubled relationship with its many parents led to poor decisions and underinvestment.</span></div>

Ford Can't Be Ignored</h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: right;">
</div>
Ford sells more cars in the UK than any other manufacturer. For many years the Grand Statesman of the car world was seen as staid, steady and predictable.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This year, Ford, by reaching top spot in the MPV category, has received a major accolade from their customers and signalled to motorists and journalists alike that their cars must never be ignored.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A detailed analysis of Ford rankings on the WeLoveAnyCar.com car review site overall has seen a steady increase in positions and 2015 could see Ford being highly placed in other car categories for the National Car Awards.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
New Ford S-Max</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In 2015 Ford will launch the new S-Max. The new model is sleek, more refined and even more adaptable so it is expected that S-Max will feature in next year's National Car Awards.<br />

These awards - now in their second year - are on a very grand scale, decided by the results of Britain’s biggest ever car survey.</span></span></div>
<div class="size12b logotext-light" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 1.4em; line-height: 1.2em; margin-bottom: 10px;">

So what is different about these awards?</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="logotext-light" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The National Car Awards are not chosen by so-called experts, by small panels of professional car writers or technical boffins. They put the people who live with their cars, on a daily basis throughout the year, into the driving seat as judges. All the results are drawn from the experience and views of a vast army of actual owners of the cars reviewed.</span></div>

<div class="logotext-light" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The huge database of owner verdicts from which these awards are drawn exceeds any of those on which other motor industry gongs are based. The cars celebrated here have emerged as the best in their categories, resulting from the candid verdicts of over 650,000 actual owners who pay for, drive and live with their cars on a day-to-day basis over collectively millions of miles annually.</span></div>
<div class="logotext-light" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That is the acid test that all the winning cars in the WeLoveAnyCar awards have undergone: proving their merit in real world use by owners who have subjected them to the rigours of daily work, trial by family and all the punishing variety of driving in urban, rural and motorway conditions on roads throughout Britain.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Subaru - Most Recommended - National Car Awards</span></h2>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Subaru is the most recommended manufacturer in the National Car Awards beating Porsche and even highly rated Skoda to the pole position in the 'recommended by owners' category.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Whilst Skoda gets top prize for best overall car maker in the WeLoveAnyCar.com National Car Awards, Subaru outstrips every other manufacturer when it comes to owner recommendations. </span></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">WeLoveAnyCar.com now has over 663,199 car owner reviews and covers virtually every model on UK roads. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Each motorist is first verified as the owner of the car and then asked to rate a number of factors including "would you recommend your car?" Owners rate from 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest. Subaru received the highest rating overall.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everyone Agrees: Subaru Make Good Cars</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What Car, Which Car and most of the motoring press would agree with Subaru owners. The Subaru line up today is impressive and almost universally recommended. The Subaru XV is a great alternative to Ford's C Max and the Nissan Qashqai. </span></div>

<h3>
<div style="font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Sue Baker, noted motoring journalist and Editor in Chief of the National Car Awards, commented on Subaru: </span></div>
<div style="font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">
</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><span style="font-size: 17px; line-height: 24px;">Well done to Subaru for beating all its rivals to be the most recommended manufacturer in the collective verdicts of owners. That is some achievement ahead of so many other well-respected brands. It makes it very obvious how enamoured those who drive them are with their Scooby-doos, and the cars come well up the list for reliability.</span></i></span></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Subaru: International Success Story</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: center;">Fuji Heavy Industries, the company behind Subaru, produced some 647,488 cars to October in 2014, 8.4% higher than last year. Production is increasing month on month with 83,325 units produced in September alone.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: center;">Subaru is a very familiar site on the roads i</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">n countries like the USA and Australia. Subaru has increased exports by over 17% in 2014 and the brand and the highly regarded cars are an international success.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">UK Subaru Owners: A Small Group of Happy Owners</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">In the UK Subaru is less successful and, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, it only sold only 2,271 units in 2013.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Clearly the world loves the rugged, safe and reliable Subaru. The small group of happy owners UK will continue to wither which is a shame for such an admired vehicle. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">According to <a href="http://www.weloveanycar.com/carcountuk/subaru" target="_blank">CarCountUK</a>, the WeLoveAnyCar.com service which gives out how many makes and models are registered to drive on UK roads, there are 87,710 Subaru's on UK roads. With such low sales in recent years this figure alone is testament to Subaru longevity and reliability.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Subaru Exclusivity</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Perhaps part of the appeal of owning a </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: center;">Subaru is its exclusivity. One Subaru Legacy owner on the WeLoveAnyCar.com car review site said:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="logotext normal" style="background-color: #f8f8f8; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: #f8f8f8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><i>"Great car that stands out from the crowd because it is so rare. Fun to drive."</i></span></blockquote>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><a href="http://weloveanycar.com/">WeLoveAnyCar.com</a> ranks all cars sold and the Subaru is one of the best. Hopefully</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"> Britain will soon wake up to the advantages of owning Subaru once again.</span></div>

Google Shows Respect to the 655,000 WeLoveAnyCar.com Car Reviewers</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Google has recognised the contribution our 655,000+ car reviewers have made and now, when a car buyer uses Google for a specific car review, they are likely to find WeLoveAnyCar.com car reviews with Google on their 'first' page of results. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course this makes us happy. It also shows respect to the hundreds of thousands of motorists who have spent their time and energy trying to help other car buyers by submitting a car review to the WeLoveAnyCar.com site.</span><br />

Google Penguin Update</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Every so often Google will look at the way it generates results. When Google does this in a major way they have called the change 'Panda', 'Hummingbird', 'Penguin' and so on.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Apparently, this weekend, Google updated their 'Penguin' which tries to do an even better job at giving people, who use Google to search for information, better results.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Unlike many car sites we don't have clever scientists to work out what Google is doing. We certainly don't know what their new 'Penguin' will mean to people looking for honest and independent car reviews. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our focus, here at WeLoveAnyCar.com, will therefore be to carry on asking more drivers to submit more car reviews. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If we stick to our aim of enabling car owners to help each other - we think Google will respect this and especially the hundreds of thousands of car reviewers who have built the biggest car review site in the UK and beyond.</span><br />

<h3>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">No more paper tax discs from the 1st of October!</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The DVLA has just asked us to tell you that tax discs won't be needed after 1st October 2014. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You will still pay for car tax. A reminder will be sent to you when the road tax is about to expire, even if your car is exempted from paying it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How do I pay for the road tax?</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tCXLyYYWHOY/U_xSEzKds-I/AAAAAAAAAnA/s5wQGV4zZO8/s1600/taxdisc.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img alt="DVLA are doing away with the paper tax disc.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you decide to pay every six months or every month, it will be 5% more expensive. Payments will be continued until cancelled.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What if I am selling my car?</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once you have sold your car privately, you should notify the DVLA to get a refund on remaining months.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tax discs WILL NOT carry over to the new owner. You can no longer sell a car with remaining months valid tax after 1st November 2014.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you sell your car to WeBuyAnyCar.com or a car dealer, they will sort it out for you.

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Most of our car reviews are positive – people love their cars. But, you know when it is time to sell your car if you can say yes to three or more of the following:</h3>
<div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Is there a new version of your car coming out? (Means your version will be worth less).</li>
<li>Is your car due its MOT - and are you worried? </li>
<li>Is your car worth less than you thought?</li>
<li>Do you seem to be driving the oldest car on the block?</li>
<li>Is your car heavy on fuel? </li>
<li>Haven't you looked back at your car when you get out recently?</li>
<li>Are you bored with your car?</li>
<li>Have you been prone to 'auto envy' - Admiring a friend's new car?</li>
<li>Doesn't it fit your lifestyle - eg sports car with a baby seat, 4 kids in a Ford KA?</li>
<li>Has it been more than 6 months since you cleaned your car (inside as well)?</li>
</ol>

the company coming under Indian ownership was ‘slightly sad’. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

would vote UKIP at the next election, even higher than some recent national
polls suggest, with 37% intending to vote Conservative. Jaguar owners are not liberals with less than
1% intending to vote for the beleaguered party.
That said, 25% of respondents would ‘rather not say’ or are ‘unsure’ who
they would vote for at the next election.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

cause with 67% rating the last dealer they visited 4 or 5 out of 5. 46% said they felt ‘welcome,’ 33%
‘comfortable’ and 26% ‘appreciated.’
Jaguar owners were also happy to recommend their dealer but, tellingly,
only 44% of them had their car serviced there ‘all the time’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

owner, 12% said they would be interested in buying an all-electric Jaguar with
a range of 300 miles and 26% would seriously consider buying one. Now that the American Tesla has entered the
UK with a premium all-electric car with the same range Jaguar should take note.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Analysis of 2013 review data revealed key differences between drivers by location. Not only did Scotland rate Audi more highly than Skoda, the Scots had lower ratings for Land Rovers in general citing reliability issues more frequently than owners of the same make south of the border.</span></div>

New government figures show that the wealth of the nation is not just in peoples’ homes, but parked outside.18 million UK households own at least one car worth a combined £100 Billion. </h3>

<div style="text-align: justify;">

We have highlighted an important component of personal assets; the car. The average value of a car used by government is £5,000 but figures don't include multi-car owning households.</div>

The equity UK motorists have is overlooked by most commentators, and is a major component of wealth in the UK.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
UK car buyers are underserved when it comes to finding out information on the best cars to buy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a class="trackingLink" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03tzcbb" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="BBC Top Gear" trackinglink="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03tzcbb">Top Gear</a> presenters Clarkson, May and Hammond focus on looks and performance but, from a wealth point of view, motorists need to know which cars hold their value, the models that cost less to run and those with the best reliability.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are over 32 million cars registered on UK roads. Whilst a number are owned by companies and leasing organisations, the majority belong to the public. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The demographics of car ownership have changed. <a class="trackingLink" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/vehicles-statistics" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Vehicle licensing statistics: 2013" trackinglink="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/vehicles-statistics">Department of Transport</a> statistics published in April 2014 show Women bought 1.6 million more cars in the last 10 years whilst men owning cars has only grown by 600,000. </div>

<br />
<br />
Our further analysis mined from millions of lines of data published by government reveal the biggest growth in car ownership is among women aged over 50.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Britain’s mobile wealth is not only confined to cars. Information published includes details of boats, caravans and motorbikes worth another £40 Billion.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Personalized number plate ownership has increased by 8% in the last 6 years. 1.5 million people have a number plate which means something to them, their friends and their pockets.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Whilst the government wealth survey is informative, figures issued do not necessarily reconcile with those published by other government departments such as the Department of Transport. The total value of Britain's cars is far higher as many houses have more than one car.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The disparity between people who have a car and those who don't has fallen slightly with 25% of the measured population not owning a car. A more detailed analysis reveals that city dwellers have seen car ownership drop whilst people in rural areas have been forced to buy a car because of falling public transport availability.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our car review site holds the views and reviews of over 540,000 motorists and gives an insight into key costs of ownership – fuel economy and reliability – and is available free to motorists.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In cash strapped Britain, hardworking motorists are advised to read reviews and views of cars by the most important people: car owners who have lived and paid for a car over the long term.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; padding: 4px 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The fact is over 20% of car owners will have dogs. Today's car market can be rough and dealers should take the lead and lay out the welcome mat for the family dog.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
As <a class="trackingLink" href="http://www.am-online.com/news/2014/4/8/how-car-dealers-can-hook-customers-online/34798/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Automotive Management" trackinglink="http://www.am-online.com/news/2014/4/8/how-car-dealers-can-hook-customers-online/34798/">Automotive Management</a> reported on 8th April, dealers find that customers ‘already have their mind made up’ before they visit a dealership. However that article and others are missing a key point – prospective customers don't just search for a car, they <b>research</b> the cars they want to buy and are increasingly looking to other car owners for their opinions.</div>

WeLoveAnyCar.com have harnessed the power of the motorist in gathering the opinions of known car owners – no one can submit a review to our site without being asked. Once a review is submitted, we ask other drivers of the same derivative of car if they agree or disagree with the review. This ‘digital diligence’ avoids spurious and fake reviews. <a class="trackingLink" href="https://www.weloveanycar.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="WeLoveAnyCar.com" trackinglink="https://www.weloveanycar.com">WeLoveAnyCar.com</a> now has the views and opinions of over 538,000 car owners on virtually every make and model of car sold in the UK today.</div>

Used Car Buyers - Start Online Not On Foot</h3>

According to <a class="trackingLink" href="http://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/tools/customer-journey-to-online-purchase.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Google" trackinglink="http://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/tools/customer-journey-to-online-purchase.html">Google</a>, keen buyers will suck in information and will know a great deal about the car they want to buy. <a class="trackingLink" href="http://www.mckinsey.com/client_service/automotive_and_assembly/latest_thinking" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="McKinsey &amp; Company" trackinglink="http://www.mckinsey.com/client_service/automotive_and_assembly/latest_thinking">McKinsey & Company</a> issued a paper in February 2014 which stated that 100% of used car buyers search on line first.</div>

<h3>
Review Sites for Holidays - Why Not Cars?</h3>
<br />
Prospective customers have been trained in review sites like TripAdvisor where they can find out what travelers thought of a hotel or holiday destination. Now they expect the same information to be available for cars for sale online and they expect it to be fair, accurate and up-to-date.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Car buyers will spend hours researching what car is best for them - using car review sites to 'ask' other car owners who have lived with and paid for a car for their opinion.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Educating The Salesman</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
WeLoveAnyCar.com plan to give dealers and dealer salesmen information on customer reviews on every car for sale on their forecourt where they are available. By working with dealers we think we can help salesman gain more information about the cars they have for sale. Hopefully they will be able to read as much about the cars they have for sale as their prospective customers.<br />

Money Doesn't Mean Clean</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cars are often the second biggest asset people own. According to car cleaners, however, the value
of the car is often odds with the garbage found in it. One car cleaner (who didn't
want to be named) said, “I’ve cleaned cars worth over £100,000 and they've made
me physically sick with the smell and the stuff I've found in them.”<o:p></o:p></div>

Driver Detritus</h3>

Car cleaners turn a blind eye to most driver detritus. The competitive nature of car cleaning
services has cut the cost of a car valet in real terms and they can’t afford to
be too fussy. However the line has to be drawn when it comes to the unsafe and
the hazardous. A list of items found by
car cleaners included:</div>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Vans number 3.3 million on British roads – the highest ever and another sign of economic recovery. WeLoveAnyCar.com finds white van men outnumber women by 10 to 1 and Hampshire is home to more vans than anywhere else in the UK.</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
In another sign of Britain emerging from the recession and economic growth gaining pace, the UK <a class="trackingLink" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/vehicles-statistics" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Vehicle Registration Statistics" trackinglink="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/vehicles-statistics">government reports</a> on 10th April that the number of light commercial vehicles - vans - on UK roads is the highest ever and new van sales are increasing faster than cars.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Whilst more women own and drive more cars than ever before, the van is still the preserve of male owners with men outnumbering women van owners by 10 to 1 according to the figures issued by the <a class="trackingLink" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vehicle-licensing-statistics-2013" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Department of Transport 2013 report" trackinglink="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vehicle-licensing-statistics-2013">Department of Transport</a> .</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Half of all vans on the roads are owned by companies but owner/drivers of vans number 1.5 million. The growth in the number of owner/driver vans in the last ten years has been double that of company owned vans - another fact supporting the importance of the small business sector to the economy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Plumbers, decorators, builders and other tradesmen stopped buying new vans as work dried up in 2008. However now more vans are being sold throughout the UK and the Van population has never been higher.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a class="trackingLink" href="http://www.weloveanycar.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="WeLoveAnyCar.com" trackinglink="http://www.weloveanycar.com">WeLoveAnyCar.com</a>, the biggest car and van review site in the UK, crunched government stats and found that the ‘white van man’ is leading the way to economic recovery.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Vans registered by area also give a fascinating insight into Britain’s economic recovery with more vans being registered in the prosperous south with Hampshire, then Essex, leading the way.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Light Commercial Vehicles tend to have a much harder, longer life and face higher expectations from their owners. Reliability is key and factors like starting first time and the ability to repair cheaply and quickly high on owner’s demands. The Ford Transit – in its many forms – is highly rated by ‘white van man’ who is less likely to switch to other makes than car buyers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other manufacturers have focused their efforts on comfort and accessories to attract van buyers. However, the reviews of thousands of van owner drivers reveal that the core need is to work on time, every time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Reviews written by Ford Transit owners show how important their Transit is, or was, to their business and life in general:</div>

The importance of internet search in the automotive sector
has grown dramatically. The <a href="http://www.mckinsey.com/client_service/automotive_and_assembly/latest_thinking" target="_blank">McKinsey& Company report </a>published in February 2014 into the future of car buying
outlines how 100% of used car purchases and the majority of new car purchases
are made after detailed internet research has been carried out by the
prospective buyer. Also <a href="http://www.researchgate.net/profile/Amanda_Kimbrough/publications" target="_blank">Amanda M.Kimbrough of the University of Alabama</a> found that, ‘Women connect more than do

WeLoveAnyCar.com analysed the Department's monthly figures by each individual 'A' road then averaged these out over 12 months by Local Authority or Borough.

Whilst they say their figures are 'experimental', they have been collecting data for more than 6 years on over 4000 stretches of 'A' roads.</div>

Apple And Google Fight To Take Control Of Your Car</span></h3>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The recent Geneva Motor Show illustrated how the electronic trend is set to be turbo boosted as heavy weight tech giants like Apple and Google move in to the car world. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Car manufacturers now spend an increasing amount on inventing and adopting electronic gadgetry in an effort to gain the attention of motorists who love to boast to their friends about their ‘heads up display’ and the fact that the car can automatically adapt to the weather conditions.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Does Your Average Car Mechanic Have a Computer Science Degree? He May Need One...</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whilst mechanical issues over the last 20 years have reduced and cars have become more reliable, the new era of computer aided cars may well stretch the demands of car workshops lagging behind when it comes to fixing electrical problems. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The lack of training and limited investment in technical diagnosis equipment could see more, not less, business being driven to well financed manufacturer franchise dealers which could increase the cost of car ownership.</span></div>

Not All Drivers Are The Same</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whilst the WeLoveAnyCar.com car review site comments indicate a preference among men for '<b>Electro-Bling</b>' it is hard to be accurate. All drivers are different and this blog post merely draws its information from general comments, and the number and type of comments made by both men and women, young and old, loaded or strapped. In the end, choosing a car for looks and gadgetry is just as much a choice as the costs of ownership. </span><br />
