Glad you brought bhp back After using this app for years I decided to look up a cars bhp and realised it didn't even show the one feature I used it for! Glad they've brought it back
★★★★★
Now works on S7 too Compared to other vehicle apps, I prefer this one as it shows a picture of the car and shows the BHP which other apps don't. Something simple but I prefer this, plus it gives all the information other apps give too. If you make the app with NO permissions it is worth 5 stars. Also more and additional information would be nice.

Can check bhp and engine size again!, They removed the ability to check for bhp, co2 and engine size but it's back now. Would have given 5 stars but the interface is poor.
★★☆☆☆
Rubbish since the update Was a great app but now its Absolutely useless since they updated this app . no bhp figures , co2 etc all removed. Even when you pay for the other data its rubbish and not worth the money especially when there are other apps available . very disappointing since the update
★★☆☆☆
Now rubbish Used to love checking bhp and engine sizes on car amongst other things . Now seem to of all gone . Moving onto a different app .
★★☆☆☆
Was 5/5 now it's awful Since the update I just can't use it. It displays less info such as transmission and bhp are no more. The whole scroll concept is poor. There should be a menu to differentiate between the free app and the paid version. Or just make a second app which is a paid version. I'm looking for a new app but ill keep this one in case you come to your senses
