• Jaguar S-Type - Jaguar S-Type - ownership nightmare? 17 Aug 2012 (Forum)
  Hi all I've seen a Jag S-Type locally at a very tempting price - 51 reg with 131k on the clock, being offered by a dealer who I'm guessing probably doesn't want it on the forecourt and needs to get rid. It's the 3.0 V6 auto version.
• Giving uninformed technical advice 13 Feb 2010 (Forum)
  Dispiriting - the Tech`s are weary of `armchair experts` - now they too are challenged by the guy (s) who knows nothing technically - but who have found a soap box. Free speech? Sure. I`m not suggesting a `plonker` marker at the side of these posts - but you wonder if actual tech`s should have a means of identification.

  s most critical. The system puts the voice up at the driver?s level when road conditions are relatively safe, then drops it down to the driver?s feet when conditions are more hazardous.
• What`s in your washer bottle? 25 Mar 2009 (Forum)
  Or that catch all `fluid`.. Pink or blue? There generally has to be a colour of course to give `confidence` that it`s not plain water. Even though that leaves an opaque coating on the screen round the edge of the wiped area. I had a recent dream (time shift induced) that included the usual cream and red Triumph twin (last seen age 17yrs in the 60`s) but the main thrust was a guy telling me that cod liver oil kept the pipes soft.. the washer pipes that is.
• Translucent red or toilet flush blue? screen wash 2 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  Of course the colour in the mix doesn`t just de-materialise, it leaves a scum on the screen, outside the wipers arc. Given that this stuff is ready mixed. What`s the point? unless it`s form over function again? I know that if you try hard, the clear stuff can be found.. but its seemingly not popular. If its not ready mixed and its that nice little main dealer earner.. that`s different.

• Milked at dawn - `bring it in at 8.30 sir`... 25 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  That`s with me though and I`m reasonably technically minded........... At the service desk it`s obvious that 9 out of 10 people don`t have a clue and it`s more than being `milked at dawn` more like `raptors are go` I wonder if these places are nervous enough to play background music when huddled together planning their `recession survival strategies?
