There’s one question I get sick of being asked over and over again. Well, two if I include Bob asking me for Christina Hendrick’s phone number every time I see him. But the other one, the one that rears its ugly head year after year, is ‘what should I buy so-and-so for Christmas?’ It seems

It must sound great when he hears that. So we’ll say it again, Max Chilton – F1 driver! Please join the Wheels of Squeal team in putting your paws together to congratulate Max on securing his seat with the Marussia F1 team for the 2013 season. It’s just reward for a young driver who

Christmas time is probably this cabbie’s favourite time of year. And it’s not just the extra tips. People pile in with bags and bags of Christmas shopping. I’m ferrying folk from work-dos to festive get-togethers. Cheeks are pink from frosty weather and mulled wine. I find out where all the best decorated houses are (and

Having taken Gertie to a few Motor Shows across the globe this year, I’ve seen my fair share of concept cars. Some were inspiring, some not so much.

Monday night was one of the best. A proper traditional get together at the local pub. There were toffee apples and cinder toffee, coloured sparklers and an impressive fireworks display, and a roaring bonfire with a Guy on top. Even better, the kiddiewinkles starting
This weekend I’ve been to pick up some TomTom sat navs (The TomTom Via Live 120 satellite navigation system to give them their full title.) Because Wheels of Squeal have got EIGHT of the little beauties to give away. And it seemed a lovely little drive out for me and the wife in the Triumph
More...No doubt we’re all looking forward to the Indian Grand Prix this weekend. You’ve got to hope for an Alonso win (if only to keep the Championship alive!) So far, most of the drivers have been raving about the Buddh International Circuit. 5.14km of high-speed tarmac, it’s hosting only its second F1 Grand Prix,
