A great little run-around This is a great little car for the money ideal for a small family run-around or second car great for a first car and excellent for a business all branded up!!The new Citroën C1 is up against some seriously strong rivals in the competitive city car class, such as the Volkswagen Up and the Hyundai i10.As if those two weren’t enough to worry about, the C1 also has to take on its stablemates, the Toyota Aygo and Peugeot 108. With all three cars sharing the same basic engineering DNA, it’s only the cars’ styling and pricing, and the small differences in their specifications and trim, that will matter to customers.Of the two engines we prefer the 1.0 litre, certainly for city driving. It feels very slow and needs to be

worked hard, but its five gear ratios are well spaced. Bear in mind, however, that with two or more people on board, it will struggle on steep hills. Even solo, and with your foot to the floor, the C1 builds speed very gradually. Once the power does arrive at high revs, the engine note becomes really strained. The 1.2-litre engine is only a little better in this regard because it doesn’t need to be worked quite as hard.There are three trim levels are offered: Touch, Feel and Flair. The entry-level Touch provides remote central locking, electric windows and an MP3-compatible stereo, but upgrading to Feel brings body-colour wing mirrors and door handles, air-conditioning, a height-adjustable driver’s seat and a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system.The range-topping Flair features 15-inch alloy wheels, tinted glass, a rev counter, electric mirrors and a rear parking camera.Although the latest Citroen C1 has almost identical dimensions to its predecessor – not surprising as it’s a development of the previous-generation model’s platform – the company has done

a great job of making the design fun, fresh and entirely different from its Toyota and Peugeot sister cars.The split headlight design is an interpretation of the same theme you’ll find on the Citroen C4 Cactus, while vertical LED lights are integrated neatly into the front bumper.At the rear, square 3D-effect tail-lamps and a blacked-out glass

tailgate are also distinctive, while the side profile is shared with the Aygo and 108. It’s a similar story

with the interior design; this is replicated across all three of the city cars, with the

exception of the badges.Colour-coded trim on the centre console and gearlever surround, as well as

flashes of exterior colour on the doors and the option of striped seat upholstery, ensure the C1’s

interior is light and cheery.

The persistent problem of incompetent and rogue traders in the UK’s home repair, maintenance and improvement market is the source of great distress, disruption and financial loss

for many homeowners. It also causes huge political concern and frustration, and pernicious reputational damage for an entire industry where the good,

hardworking majority are unfairly tarred with the same brush as the cowboys. TRUSTMARK was launched to the public in January 2006 as the Government backed quality scheme that signposts people to reputable local tradesmen.

TrustMark is the Government backed quality scheme that signposts people to reputable local firms and expert tradespeople working to Government-endorsed standards.

“ TrustMark is an easy way for consumers to identify

tradesmen who have agreed to abide by industry standards

of competence and fair trading.” Consumer Minister,

Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Business

Milton Keynes Guttering

It has been a very busy month for me both in the House of Commons and in Milton Keynes. The range of issues I get involved in is incredibly wide. Here are just a few of them.Earlier this month I joined a young constituent in the House of Commons, Archie Campling, at the launch Pancreatic Cancer UK’s new Patient Charter. The charter is a handy booklet, aimed at giving patients and families the confidence to ask the right questions and get what they need at a difficult and confusing time. It will be an excellent tool for patients in Milton Keynes and throughout the UK.Back in MK I have been working on several issues, one major concern that is regularly being raised with me is the planned Health Centre on the Western Flank. Last month I was disappointed to hear the Council confirming it would be open in 2019. In my opinion this is far too late. The GP surgeries on the Western Flank are already under substantial pressures, with families moving in now I am concerned what will happen if there are no measures put in place to ease the situation. I have written to NHS England’s Chief Executive asking for assurances.

“You may have noticed an increase in bird and insect activity in your gardens? This means bird nesting season is fast approaching and any nests (including squirrels and bats) are protected by The Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) and cannot be disturbed or destroyed while being constructed or occupied. But what does this mean for your trees?

Birds will favour tall trees or dense foliage (Conifers especially!) as protection from predators. The presence of a nest will stop any tree works until the birds have flown. Many people are tempted to remove the

May 2016



According to statistics obtained from land registry records, Milton Keynes house prices rose well above the average of 8.6% across the rest of England with Scotland and Wales remaining virtually static. The Chancellors announcement back in November regarding the increased level of stamp duty for second home owners put a real sense of urgency into the buy-to-let housing market, and we saw a huge increase in the number of investment enquiries which in itself led to a micro bubble forming, with individual price rises for certain properties of around 6.9% occurring within this 5 month period alone. The average Milton Keynes house price is currently £306k in contrast to the average house price in London of £530k and £163k in the North of England. With 63% fewer properties for sale in Milton Keynes now versus the same time last year, you can see the dramatic effect the stampede to beat the rise in Stamp Duty has had on resale values.

Whilst these house price rises are great in the long term, it should always be remembered that affordability and salary of your potential tenants are a key factor in the level of rent that can be charged, as there is absolutely no point in asking for more than anyone in the market can realistically afford to pay. Typically, small houses with 1-2 bedrooms will return a

higher short term yield whereas larger homes (3 bedrooms and above) tend to be subject to

higher long term capital growth.

For buy to let property investors this is good news, as a third year of circa 10% annual capital appreciation coupled with yields of around 5% means they

can have a cash generative asset and a long term growth vehicle all in the

same buy to let property, generating around 15% annual return on investment at

this time.

If you are thinking of getting into the buy to let property rental market as a new investor and don’t know where to start, or you would like some impartial advice and guidance to get the best return on your investment, call us now on 01908 562582 or pop along and speak to us in person at our offices in Stony Stratford.

Review for Major Express DecoratorsHaving two small children running around the house can be fun at the best of times, but when all you can see are little finger prints all over your walls, you know it is time to do something about it, and moving the children out was not on the cards, so Kim and I went for the best option and got a decorating company in to help put the house back together.

We called Leigh from Major Express Decorators who has been advertising with us for a while and it soon became apparent that it was the best thing to do.

Leigh was very accommodating and happy to work when the children were at school and nursery, probably best as I know they would have wanted to help and don’t think help would have been what they would do.

Leigh has been very professional from the first visit to quote to the very end, popping back to

make sure everything had settled properly and to see if there was any snagging

to put right, which can I say there wasn’t but as a perfectionist in

what he does Leigh wanted to double check.

We have even had friends round who were as impressed as we

have been and have booked Leigh to go to their house to carry

out decorating for them.

Speak for itself if you ask me.

If you have any work that needs doing I would recommend speaking to Major Express Decorators.
