• Farewell chug a chug Diesels - you served us well. 13 Aug 2009 (Forum)

• I Have a Question - Volume 298 [Read Only] 11 Jul 2009 (Forum)
  (I`m tempted to do this to be honest) Of course the issue is with the `market place seller` but being relatively new to all of this I would welcome your advice.

• Route advice please - Calais to Lot-et- Garonne 24 Apr 2009 (Forum)
  and onto the A71 and onto the free A20 and exiting somewhere around Brive depending on where we are staying.. It?s usually quite straightforward.

• New or Old shape Volvo V70 ? 9 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  Thinking about a a vovlo V70 Need an estate car, and something that will tow a BIG 4berth caravan..... Article in Car Mechanics s Magazine about the new shape V70, how low spec ones are gettin down toward £4K ( I don't think I'd buy one that cheap though) I am prob wanting to spend £6-7K maximum.

• Sweet justice 21 Nov 2005 (Forum)
