I booked the ferry over to Calais for £65 and we always like to keep some flexiblity in these trips - so no hotel bookings in advance involving credit cards.
Any thoughts? Diesel prices and so on?... Read more
I wonder if anyone can help?

Gents, Long time lurker only recently started posting. I am hoping a few wise heads here can help clarify my thinking.
So it appears SWMBO and i have had a wee accident and number four might be on the way. I am planning to shortly be de-seeded to prevent future accidents but this leaves us in a dilemma. After number 2 arrived we decided to go for a large estate as we deemed even if number 3 appeared we would be covered. Avensis estate has performed admirably but within the next 5 months a change will be needed.... Read more
I was wondering if anybody in this forum has/had/remebers the Bridgestone 350 GTR? I saw a s/h one many moons ago (well around 1974/5) in a dealers. He suggested it was nearly as fast as a as the Bonneville of the same era. I cannot recall seeing one since. A few years ago I did see a 175 single at a classic vehicle show. They were attractive bikes and it seems a pity they gave up manufacturering them to focus on tyres! Read more
Good link! New site to me.
hi, my 2.0l hdi 406 2002, 207k has a screeching/crackling noise on start up until fully warmed up. It's coming from a pully which is driven by the cam belt, it is high up on the front of the engine. i think it drives the fuel pump...? Any help please

Hiya chaps,
2003 1.4 16v duratec engine. The MPG is low, and if you try to accelerate at or below 2k rpm the engine misfires quite violently and struggles to pickup - although it does eventually.... Read more
I left my car for 4 weeks over the winter (freezing conditions, etc.)
When I returned, there was a slight rubbing when using the brake that coud be felt through the pedal - almost like there was something stuck on the pad causing it to catch then work properly (much like on a bicycle when the rim is out of alignent). I tried braking hard a few times then normally and it seemed to subside. However, it's still there 3 months later. Brakes seem to work fine, I was wondering whether it could be a rust patch or maybe the pad was worn in one area or perhaps wheel balancing? Read more
Is there any reason they warp?
It might be coincidence it was after 3 weeks of non use in winter, they have colder winters elsewhere than we have without problems....
I have to store my car in a garage for 3/4 months.
Any suggestions on how to keep it in order?
I have read suggestions of a trickle charger but the garage has no access to solar or electricity. Also, should I overpump the tyres and by how much?... Read more
