If all lorries are restricted to the same maximum speed then there's no need to overtake. They should all be in lane 1 leaving the rest of us to have enough space to get on.
But they aren't - some companies voluntarily fit limiters set to less than 90kph (56mph), eg 80 kph (50 mph) in order to save fuel - and remember, speed limits are not a target, they're a maximum.
Currently run a citroen picasso desire 1.6 diesel, looking to replace and have choice of new C3 or low mileage C4, any comments? Read more
C4 is a better hatchback than a C3 and there are some good pre-reg deals on both of them around.
I your talking about the MPV, go for the berlingo multispace if you need loads and loads of space and good durability....
Hello i am new here and am not very good with computors and spelling so please excuse me. My problem is this... i brought a vectra c 1.8sri petrol over a year ago now and i always thought it was way to flat in the way of engine performance, i couldnt find any problems until yesterday when i decided to plug my scan tool into it and moniter the tp%, i couldnt seem to get it past 62%, i tried to load the engine thinking it might only be designed to give 100% in the taller gears? there are no fault codes...this would explain the flattness of the engine. IS this normal? is it a symptom of something else maybe like to much pressure in the cat?surely it would have a code, my s.t.f.t was -2.3% which is exceptable i was always thinking.....hhhm. Any help or ideas would b so much appreaciated... i would love to think i had another 40%throttle... brilliant..thanks people.. Read more

Wow 140 PS per litre in a domestic hatchback - that is going to hurt sooner or later, with much higher insurance premiums, repair bills, breakdowns, burnt out turbo charger bearings etc ! Let us really hope that the excellent Ford Design Engineers demands to 'do it all properly' was NOT 'over ruled' for reasons of cost by the Ford Managers !

Since you say you cannot hear the motor running, are you sure there is current getting to the motor? Check the fuses first, then borrow a meter or connect a 12v bulb across the two wires to the pump, if the bulb lights when you operate the washers then you have power.
