LeMon treat for Mother’s Day
With May 12th rushing towards us like a freight train, the annual ritual of what to buy the woman that has everything is rapidly moving into nightmare territory. While perfumes, flowers and chocolates are a reliable ‘goto’s’ they also underline that fact that you gave the person that brought you into this world and who […]
Turning needs into WANTS – SKODA Kodiaq RS review
I’ve had this conversation many times over the years “Nobody needs a car that goes that fast, costs that much, is that low to the ground etc etc” and fundamentally ‘they’ are correct.

Pretty Poly – 5th Gen Toyota Rav4 Review
To most of us, a polygon is a 2D shape made from straight lines.
