• Breakdown 6 Jun 2003 (Forum)
  The spool may or may not be available separately (although most Renault bits are thankfully pretty detachable, intentional or otherwise) but at the moment, my car is in Slough, I am in London and there's no chance of it being repaired before Tuesday, when I have a very full day and no way of actually meeting the mechanic who is going to do the work. If I could get finance on a newer car, I so would!
• Which affordable diesel family car? 30 May 2003 (Forum)
  I'm not in the luxury car market, so any BWM/Merc/Saab/Volvo recommendations are (sadly) not an option - are they? I guess I'd be looking around the 10k mark (including part-ex) and would need some kind of finance (e.g. personal loan at around 6%). The HDci Mondeo (130bhp) seems the best option so far, but any other cars I should be considering? I like the idea of the Golf TDi (150 bhp), but not sure that a) it will be big enough for the family and b) cruise control is an option on this car.
• New car dilema 12 Jan 2003 (Forum)
  Originally £17,999 2001 Y S60 2.4T with Winter pack and Electric Roof - 5500 miles for £14999 with a guarantee to match the Vauxhall finance. The price difference between the two is not a concern, as I will be spending £2000 fitting the Omega with Jag style Dual Exhaust pipes and other Irmscher add ons. However, while I am a Vx fan, have a fondness for omega's, and am sure the Star Silver V6 will look a treat, my head says 'Volvo'.
