The 2019 Geneva Motor Show was the place to be this week if you were in search of extraordinary supercars or the latest in electric vehicle technology - or both combined into one. One such headline-grabber was the Automobili Pininfarina Battista. Packing a colossal 1,900hp electric punch, the all-wheel-drive Battista promises incredible performance for the exclusive group of buyers that can afford it.

Even rarer was Bugatti's one-off 'La Voiture Noire', a re-engineered car based on the Chiron that was commissioned for one serious collector. Looks are, of course, subjective, but…

While we all wait for Theresa May (or is it Noel Edmonds) to proclaim deal or no deal when it comes to Brexit, there are a few things that you'll need to know to navigate motoring in a post-Brexit world.

Obviously, when or if a deal finally passes the House of Commons, and is ratified by the EU, then much of this advice will be moot, as most issues will be, theoretically, sorted out by the deal. If the UK crashes out, as seems horribly likely...

1. You'll need an insurance 'green card'

If you're travelling between Ireland and Northern…

Our children are our most prized possessions, but do you know how to safely - and legally - transport your children in your family car? Do you know when you should be changing your child seat, according to your kid's size or age? And what are the key 'dos' and 'don'ts' to fitting a child seat? Read on, to find out...

THE LAW

In its plainest form, the law states that all children under 150cm (4ft 11in, or 5ft for simplicity) or 36kg (79lb) MUST use a child restraint system (CRS) that is suitable for their height and weight, while…

At pretty much any time of day, if you stand at Place Charles de Gaulle in Paris (where the Arc de Triomphe is), you'll see a car accident. Yes, it looks a bit like a roundabout, but with 12 exits, no road markings and the converging traffic of one of Europe's busiest cities, it's always a cacophonic calamity of screeching tyres and breaking glass, the air blue with swearing and fumes. It's really quite a mess, though somehow, despite the argy-bargy, it seems to work.

But Paris is a long way to go if you want to…

Should you buy a commercial vehicle for private use? The temptation certainly is there. Instead of spending your hard-earned on a baubles-and-tinsel large SUV, which isn't designed to tackle terrain more taxing than a shopping centre car park, why not save a few quid and buy a pick-up truck instead?

After all, it's something our American cousins have been at for decades, and that's why Ford is basically a company that makes the F-150 pick-up truck, with a few ancillary operations tacked onto the side (y'know - small fry like the Focus and

You know that sensation you get, watching another car, whereby you can read its body language? Whether as a pedestrian yourself, or from behind your own wheel, you just get a feeling of how, when and in what direction another car is going to move, and that's a feeling often reinforced by making eye contact with the driver.

That eye contact can be crucial, especially to pedestrians. Drivers are ever unpredictable from a walker's point of view, but eye contact means that at the very least, you both know where the other is and have acknowledged the other's presence. That…
