Women drivers prefer garages that have signed the FOXY Promise© to say 'We strive to be a female friendly business and will never knowingly overcharge, patronise or sell our customers services they do not need or want.'

Women motorists who do not want to find themselves continually seeking out the services of a female friendly garage after buying a car which keeps breaking down may be interested in a website which has recently celebrated its first birthday.

RoadTestReports.co.uk allows real drivers to have their say on different vehicles.

One of the website's journalists, Faye Sunderland, said: "Although journalists have traditionally been instrumental in shaping and influencing our attitude towards the motor manufacturers' offerings, they have a different set of values by which they judge the cars."

She explained driving a model for a few days may give a contrasting impression to actually relying on a vehicle as your main source of transport on a daily basis.

Ms Sunderland concluded journalists do not intend to mislead, but the real test of car quality can only be gauged after an extended period of time.

In other news, women drivers looking for a new vehicle may be interested to hear Ford has announced prices for the updated Ka will start from £7,995.
