I find it odd that despite being very dangerous/reckless/selfish, that speeding isn't one of the pet hates. There is less tolerance of slow/hesitant driving.
Socially acceptable to speed? Read more
Brilliant racing. Saw them last year, no joy riding here. Is there a preparation day like last year at Goodwood? Alan Campbell, camalan@hotmail.com Read more
Please can someone tell me the code for my ford fiesta radio? The serial no. is M159085. Thanks. Read more
Could be an aerial problem.The only real test would be to plug in a donor aerial to the socket at the back of the radio,if there is still no good reception then the radio is duff.Time to upgrade to a radio/cd.
I've fallen in love with the Fiat Multipla (facelift model), I know I have unique taste ;0) however I'm not so keen on the insurance group and mpg. I really should buy an economical supermini as most of my driving is round town with my 5 year old but I just don't like them! A mpv would also be useful for holidays and towing our Dandy. So I've completely confused myself and torn between two options. Does anyone have any recommendations for an economical mpv that's a bit special like the multipla and around that size (I.e not too long)? Budget of around 3k but could stretch this for the right car. Is it just not possible? Thanks for any ideas you may have! Read more
Citroen C3 picasso, acres of rear seat space, plus the seats fold down to give a massive load space.
Looks quirky like the multipla but does not have Italian electrics.
Economical too
Avant, has the site been treated for 'Heartbleed' and do we need to change passwords ? Read more
Message from our developer:
The word from our technical team is that as we don't use Open SSL anywhere (which Heartbleed targets), we shouldn't be affected. That said, the usual advice about password security apply. Best wishes, DanI have an intermittent starting problem. Sometimes the car will start first time so no problem at all; then when I go to start the car again, absolutely nothing. All the instrument lights come on, but when turning the key there is a very slight whirring sound, that is all. The motor does not engage at all, does not turn over. Any ideas as to the problem? Thanks. Read more
Thanks to you for updating the thread too.
Since October last year the minimum speeding ticket has gone up to £100 plus three points.
I got caught by a camera van and opted to do the speed awareness course for £80 and no points. I was clocked doing 35mph on a downhill approach to a village.... Read more
Right I've downloaded a free android app from google play, Speedlimit GPS Speed HUD, I think it's called, . It's got a heads up display and a sound alert. You set the speed and a siren sound goes off when you go past that speed but ceases when it becomes evident that you are going way past the limit set, Whilst hovering around the speed set it will sound everytime you go over.
Just what I need! No more NIPs. Haha!...
I shall be travelling through Holland, Germany & Denmark to spend some time in Norway and obviously I need to ensure car headlights dip to the right rather than the left. Have purchased the sticky things but get confused as to where they should go. I do remember ages ago getting plastic clip on headlight adjusters but cannot source same on the web. Any ideas on simplest solution from colleagues? Enjoy the sun! Read more
I'm in Holland now, I have stuck on the headlight a beam bender to deflect the left upwards light so that it does not dazzle oncoming motorists and at the same time not blacking out any of the light output of my headlamps.
Got them from amazon, just need a pair of scissors and a wall on a dark evening for fitting.
Anyone any idea why a 2012 Fiesta plays an ipod at fast speed when the same ipod works perfectly in at least 8 other vehicles? I have proved the ipod is working perfectly but the dealer refuses to accept that the fault lies with the vehicle console. Read more
Are you sure your not hitting the ff button by accident when connecting?
