  • Car-Unlimited.com - car sales website 22 Jul 2019 (Forum)
    Hi all. Wondering if you can help me out? I've been looking at buying an Audi A3 S-Line and found one this morning on the car-unlimited.com website. This company appears to buy repossessed cars and then sell them on. According to their website, the buyer reserves a vehicle online, then the car is delivered to their home address and is given 3 days to decide if they want to keep the vehicle, at which point payment is made.
  • Volkswagen - White smoke from oil filler cap and dipstick 20 May 2018 (Forum)
    However after looking at multiple cars i keep getting the same thing which stops me from buying them, smoke from oil filler cap and/or oil dipstick. Typically when i go to look at a car i make sure the car is cold, start it up, and see if there is anything ominous comming from the exhaust first.
  • Carjacking and car choice 17 Jul 2013 (Forum)
    All the news stories I have read always feature Mercedes and BMWs.  I have Thai friends who are buying a property in London and will be looking at purchasing a car to use when they are in the UK.  I am inclined to advise them to avoid a German marque and buy something anonymous. I am particulary concerned as the driver will sometimes be a lone female, unfamiliar with London.
  • Peugeot 206 hatchback (1998 - 2006) - 2003 2.0 wipers not working - com 2000? 9 Nov 2008 (Forum)
    I took it to the Peugeot garage today expecting to be told I need a new motor or something trivial, but got told it's the Com 2000 which needs replacing. Apparently this is the thing which works everything the stalks touch, but it's only my front wipers that don't work. Lights, indicators, back window etc. are all fine. Do I need a new Com 2000 or is there a quick and cheaper fix?
