• BMW 3-Series E91 Touring (2005 - ) - 320d : ownership report 16 Jun 2009 (Forum)
  Could I have got the same (or more) satisfaction in a new car of the same size for less money? Maybe, but I kinda doubt it. I like this BMW?s style, design philosophy and ergonomics, as well as the self-assured way it does what is asked of it. There?s nothing that irritates. It?s a good car.

• Ford B-MAX - Buying cat s car 12 Jan 2025 (Forum)
  I found this post really helpful and as I sadly don’t have a personal friend in the repair trade I’m hoping that I might get some help on here x Here’s a pic of my cat S car pre repair. Does this look like a fairly simple fix? Or perhaps you can’t tell enough from just this pic. I’m trying to clarify that if I got hit in this spot again that the car safety would function still as it should.
