Hi all
Got a potential buyer coming to look and take away my car tommorow. However can I put my private plate on retention online immediately and replace with original plate (which I have) ? Any ideas? Read more

Think you can only do it online between 7am and 7pm.

You are right, I have got the GLA/C bit wrong, I stand corrected.

I bought my last car back in March 2017, It was a Pre reg Clio with the 1.5 Diesel engine and it was one of the last diesel cars that had Zero car tax. Apart from a water leak after i bought it that was repaired and Renault compensated me with 4 years free service plan , Everything has been fine with the car , 57 mpg approx and still running the same tyre's , The car now has 26K on the clock.

I bought the car for £11.500 from Renault retail.... Read more

I guess my car has had its biggest hit on depreciation and it wasn't that bad with getting a good discount, So in 4 years time, If i can get £2000 for it , Its only a grand a year.

I have just signed up to RAC breakdown cover just in case....

So I have recently washed my car and polished and all that stuff. However, the last couple of days I have had loads of flies inside my car. I have looked everywhere in the car, cleaned again on the inside and in the boot but they keep appearing. Any ideas? Read more

Seems to be so. I had sorted the problem over weekend. Car was left for 3 days and no flies. Second I went back to work this morning they've returned. Think it's something to do with the works going on.

Hi everyone. I've got to go to court for a totting up ban and wondered if anyone had any advice on what to say for hardship. I don't have the money for a solicitor but if I get a ban I won't be able to get to work so I'll lose my job. Also I live near Cambridge but my children are in Sheffield so I wouldn't be able to get to see them either. Especially if I lose my job as I wouldn't be able to afford trains every weekend there and back. I'm really worried they're going to take my licence but without a lawyer am I going to lose?

Wow, well done Middleman. Chapter and verse of the method to present your case in court. I hope the OP has learned his lesson and becomes more aware of his speed when driving. As we all know it is a case of 'there but for the grace of etc etc'. I dare say most of us could be captured any given day infringing some motoring rule or other, but the law is absolute and cameras never lie.

Cheers Concrete

Thanks again for your input. I'm quickly fast becoming of the same opinion that ignoring it would be my best option.

It's just a silly niggle after all....

The backlog of emails has been dealt with by ORB and me so I'll lock this now.
