Frequently asked questions
- How do I submit a review?

Select the make and model you’re interested in reviewing.
Next, rate your car against the following six criteria; ‘Looks’, ‘Safety’, ‘Good to drive’, ‘Running costs and reliability’, ‘Equipment’ and ‘Overall Satisfaction’ ratings. Beneath the ratings we ask you to review your car based on three sections; ‘Pros’ ‘Cons’ and ‘Review’ fields.

At the end of every review you’ll see a link titled ‘was this review helpful?’ The more times this link is clicked, the more popular the review and the better its rating.
