How do you identify the main criteria to obtaining recognition as a ‘white van man’? Perhaps the obvious kick-off point is to own a white van, that said, you could still be excluded from the fraternity. I will list some of my own experiences, which would guarantee entry into the club for anyone.

Complete disregard for other road users

Now, this is vitally important if you wish to become a member of this club. There can’t be a slight distortion of the rules here and there, or little blind eyes turned to highway code. It has to be total anarchy! If you are driving down a narrow county road, for example, you cannot safely negociate passage past another vehicle. If it is possible you have to force the other vehicle to stop for you, or better still, completely run the other person off the road. If you can manage to do this without the slightest pang of guilt, then you are well on your way to earning your spurs.

Dominate your steet with your vehicle

Nowadays in most towns and cities the councils have woken up to the fact that lots of money can be made by forcing the population to pay for parking. Now that the parking space outside your house is premium real estate, the permit doesn’t even guarantee slotting your car anywhere near to where your live. But where does ‘white van man’ fit into this? Our fella probably owns more than one or two cars and parks the van outside his house too, consuming more space than anyone else in the street. If it is possible that you can do this and not give a stuff about your neighbours, then you will pass with flying colours!

If you wish to qualify as a ‘white van man’ check out commercial vehicle leasing has provided a simple way of getting hold of a van. LDV van leasing and Iveco van leasing are just some of the options out there to choose from.

This is a list of some of the worst films ever to come into existance featuring cars. Some of them have been bad and some have just been diabolical.

Herbie: Fully Loaded

This film took reinvented the Herbie franchise and was released in 2005 and starred Lindsay Lohan, Justin Long and Michael Keaton. Although this film made some really nice profits my personal opinion is that the film itself was actually pretty pants and doesnt touch the quality of the original films.

Fast and Furious

Although many people will certainly argue and say that this is one of the best car movies that has come to the big screen in recent years I am here to argue the complete opposite. This film only does one thing, encourage people to pimp up their cars and act like complete fools. The storyline to all of these films is dull and samey and always ends up in a very rubbish race near the end. For some strange reason these films do very well at the box office despite the crtitcs never really seeming to like them.

The Italian Job- Remake

The Italian Job is something that should not have been remade, the film was a cult classic and even trying to touch it was a pretty pointless thing to do. Although it had a pretty good cast of actors the film was just poor and they are even talking about making a sequel to it which in my opinion will just not work at all.

In all seriousness, if you are actually considering getting a car then it may be worth looking into car leasing or van leasing as it can actually prove to be a cheaper way of doing things. It is always worth looking through all of the options before choosing your next vehicle. For specific manufactures why not try Audi Leasing.

It’s obvious that used cars will be cheaper than buying a brand new one. When age, mileage and condition are taken into account, some used cars can be purchased for as much as seventy percent lower than the original new price for the vehicle. Purchasing a used car, therefore, can save somebody a great deal of cash while offering a decent driving experience.

Buying used cars is a simple procedure nowadays, especially with the advent of the internet. Using an internet search engine, you can just type in the words “used car” along with any other info you require such as the area or region, and it will bring up hundreds of results for you. There are also classified ads in newspapers and specialised magazines dedicated to the sale of used cars.

You may be worried about buying a used car especially if it is a private sale. it is always a good idea to get the car checked out before committing to buy. If you are not comfortable doing this yourself, or are mechanically challenged, get the car over to a friend that knows about these things or a mechanic. They can then give it a going over to ensure all is OK. Another good point is to take the car out to test drive it, this way you will get a feel for it while making sure there are no obvious issues.

There will also be some other things that have to be considered before making a commitment to buy the car. Carry out a research into whether the spare parts that may be needed for the particular make, model and year are easily available. Also, it may be a good idea to check out the vehicles fuel consumption. See if you can find out about the service history of the used car, and whether or not any repairs have been done to it. It is a good idea to know if any parts have had to be replaced and if so why.

For superb used cars, or a lovely used ford or used mercedes would it not be great to drive a modern car?
