• Converting an automatic to manual ? 22 Apr 2002 (Forum)
  I know that current autos may prove problematic as all the electronics may be linked. I was thinking more of late 80's or early 90's cars, where the electronics, if at all, were fairly "basic". Would a conversion prove to be financially unfeasible ? Would you have to notify DVLA and pass a MOT type test etc? Chad.R P.S.
• M1 J19 Stupid Lane Markings 29 Jan 2002 (Forum)
  Can anyone explain the logic of the changes to the s/b M1 at Junction 19. The relatively small amount of traffic going to the A14 or n/b M6 now gets an exclusive lane for the last half mile to the junction, while the 95% going on south is forced into two then three narrow ones before the s/b M6 itself filters in.

• Seat Alhambra 2019 S trim - Mouldy middle seat belt- leak? 20 Mar 2025 (Forum)
  Hi, After a protracted search we decided to proceed with buying a seat Alhambra (2018, S trim) as our new family car (see previous posts). We had an inspection carried out on it but didn’t try driving it with all the kids in so never tried the middle seat belt. Got it home and went to put in the car seats and found the middle seat belt (which feeds from the roof) is covered in mould.
• Suzuki SX4 S-Cross - N/A or 3 Cylinder Turbo? 15 May 2024 (Forum)
  l know it's a case of test driving however, l would be interested in peoples opinion. The SX4 S-Cross is a car, on paper, l like. It's not full of technology & seems to have a overall good reputation. Like others, these days l'm not willing to shell out too much on a car & want to keep things relatively simple. l don't want the complications of the Allgrip 4 wheel drive in the later 1.4, so that leaves the older N/A 1.6 & the 1 litre Boosterjet.
