Hi,

Does anyone know if/how it is possible to get the car to automatically lock all the doors once you reach a certain speed i.e. 5mph

I know my friend has manage to do this with his VW Golf and BMW by hooking up a laptop to his car and adjusting a setting somewhere.

So was wondering if there is a similar way to do this with the Nissan Primera?

If so any explanation / steps on how to do this would be appreciated =)

Slow signs on roads have sometimes puzzled me, because how slow is slow meant to be, so why not indicate a speed limit instead just a slow sign? In some instances there is a proliferation of these signs on the road? I am particularly puzzled by a stretch of road between Hathern (Leics) and Rempstone (Notts - I think). This is the A6006, Hathern to Melton Mowbray road, and for a considerable stretch, just before the crossroads with the A60, just outside Rempstone, there are slow signs on the road every 200 yards or so. The road is quite straight for much of this stretch, with good visibility, so I fail to see the need for all of these signs, but if they really want to the traffic to slow down, why not put up a lower speed limit, which is the practice on many stretches of rural roads these days?

Hi all, my sister and her hubby want a new Zafia and I have offered to get the best deal and speak to the dealers on their behalf. They want an SRi and want new but have no capital to put towards it. They want 0% finance, however I am thinking it might be better to get a cheap loan over say 3 years. The cost of this might be covered by getting pre reg, any comments?

When I buy cars, I normally do the test drive, ask about stock/delivery time, then do the deal over the phone . I figure asking for best price, then ask for the usual mud flaps etc.. then to "seal the deal" go for a tank of gas. Would this be about right? If its new then I'd ask for a grand off and start from there, 2nd I gather about £700 or so?

Not sure where we will buy from but I think a dealer first for test drive then visit supermarkets and even online. If they want new and need 0% that might be difficult though.

Never delt with VX so any suggestions on supermarkets/websites would be great.

Cheers.

P.S They are keen on the Derv. Read more
