FOXY Lady blog is all about motoring and (by and large) written by and for women. Our new blog has moved to the FOXYLadyDrivers.com domain but you can still search our blog archive (2006-2017) via the lefthand search bar here. Here’s how to find your way about our new FOXY Lady Blog which is filed into the following sections. FOXY Car Reviews This is a popular section comprising car reviews written by and for women. If you’d like to write a review for us, we’ll thank you with a gift membership of FOXY Lady Drivers Club. Just email steph@FOXYLadyDrivers.com to request headings. FOXY Informatio ..read more

Here’s where to find our new FOXY Lady Blog with effect from 1 January 2018. FOXY Lady Blog has been hosted in WordPress since its inception. As tempting as it is to carry on this way, we now have a new Blog area within the Club website. So we’re closing this WordPress blog from 1 January 2018 – with new posts appearing in the New FOXY Lady blog section instead. Look out for a new section there called FOXY Lady Opinion where I’ll publish my thoughts about motoring services and women drivers in future. You’ll also find Sections covering + Everyday ‘How To’ and ‘Tips’ motoring content, with wome ..read more

We’ll soon be merging this blog with the News and Information section of our website. Our various blog topics have all grown like Topsy but from 2018 FOXY Lady Blogs will be posted HERE, to make it easier for our readers. FOXY Lady blog is critical to getting our message across. In our new Blog Section you’ll find a blog post explaining why we write what we do and how our blog reflects our strategic business plans. It’s all part of our ‘drive’ (pardon the pun) to get what we do to a wider audience as part of an affordable and measurable PR plan. To raise awareness about the Club, I started the ..read more

How very depressing all this sleaze is but please don’t think I’m surprised. Not just about dreadful sexual behaviour at the BBC and Hollywood – now we’re reading about serious bullying and rapists at Westminster, in schools and in sport. Take the time to talk to females in other business areas and you’ll find that female harassment and worse comes in all shapes and sizes. In short it is alive and well in places near us all. Just scratch the surface and, given time, you’ll find a lack of gender respect and worse. It’s all very worrying. Will we find sexual misconduct specifically within the mo ..read more

It’s that time of year when we beg your forgiveness for taking a suitably seasonal but lighthearted look at the many tricks and treats to be found, all year round, somewhere in the motor industry. So here are some FOXY things to consider this Halloween… Spooky – how motorists in the know can often pay SO MUCH LESS for new cars than others who trust their car salesman to be fair by them. Eerie – how we sometimes get sold things we don’t actually need or want, especially when we don’t know the right questions to ask or what homework to do first. Ghostly – the shortage of women throughout the mot ..read more

If you fancy a motoring holiday that takes in the best sights, you’d be hard pressed to do better than consider this selection. And whilst the image of the perfect road trip might suggest the USA as a destination, due to its sheer size and the choice of vast highways, you don’t have to travel that far to see equally spectacular scenery that might even be on your British doorstep! When you know where to look. Luckily for us Your Parking Space has done most of the heavy lifting here (by driving their favourite European Road Trip routes (what a tough job guys) so we’re happy to mention them and f ..read more

Understandably, James Bond has always had his pick of cream of the crop cars. But what about Bond girls and the cars they drove? To remind us, the London Film Museum has installed a new display of original film cars driven by female characters starring alongside 007 in the James Bond franchise. Also included are previously unseen costumes, props and storyboards. The Bond in Motion exhibition has over 100 individual items on display including the Aston Martin DB5 from GoldenEye, the ‘Wet Nellie’ Lotus Esprit S1 from The Spy Who Loved Me, the Rolls-Royce Phantom III from Goldfinge ..read more

I’m fed up with the negativity and pessimism we’re forever reading, whether it’s in the media or from self-appointed thought leaders. With so much uncertainty about Brexit I’d rather see more of us talking up the UK economy and for each of us in business to do what we can to identify good news and steady the ship. Instead of majoring on a scenario of doom and gloom despite knowing the exit die is cast. Personally I relish a good challenge and I think we have the talent to respond well to this in future. I’m confident that if we all pull together (which we aren’t doing at present) and see pluse ..read more

To help us create a female friendly support message for this year’s Tyre Safety Month marketing campaign, ‘Bad Air Day’ we are delighted to be partnering with PurePotions to promote their range of natural hair products as part of our #TyreSafetyMonth activities. As everyone knows, when your hair feels and looks neglected, we feel the same and it affects our personal confidence levels. Now imagine how your car feels when its tyres have been neglected and they don’t have enough air in them to do their job properly! They don’t perform as well and it’s definitely a ‘Bad Air Day’ in terms of your m ..read more
