• Vauxhall Astra GTC - What else if not head gasket? 1 Feb 2023 (Forum)
  Hi All,  Wonder if anyone had similar issues. I have a automatic, 1.4 Astra GTC, petrol car, 40k miles, 2016 plate.  I had coolant problems since last year, some hoses were changed last year as the coolant leaked out.

• Driving licence @ 70 9 May 2022 (Forum)
    My question is can I apply online, get the plastic card back which I understand comes through very quickly as it is automatic. Nobody "working from home" needs to process it. But can I then apply for D1 as a minimum to be restored? I gather you can continue to drive a category providing it is under application. That way I can be much more assured that I have the licence for the french trip, and also continue to drive the minibus for the locals.
