  A rugged winter weather solution - Lada Niva 1 Sep 2011 (News)
  So it’s simple to establish that the Niva works in the right environment, but it does have drawbacks. The interior looks as it would have when the car was introduced in the 70s, with lots of cheap plastic, thin doors that clatter shut and silly little windscreen wipers that look to have been lifted from a Morris Minor. It’s charming, but you wouldn’t want to live with it day to day.

  Historics Classic Auction Preview 28-11-2015 26 Nov 2015 (News)
  At the Classic Car Show I met a chap who claimed to own a factory fresh 1954 Austin A40 Somerset and I have to wonder if lot 208 is actually his car. There is not a speck of rust anywhere. The seats and door cards are in delivery condition, just as you would expect them to be if you were picking up the car from an Austin dealer sixty-one years ago.

  A Grand Monday: Morris Marina 1.3 11 Mar 2019 (News)
  At launch, the mtoring media fed back to BL that something needed to be done with the front suspension before the car was launched to the general public, and BL’s management listened intently and acknowledged the car’s shortfalls - then promptly did nothing.  As a result, early Marinas were slated by the press.

  A Grand Monday: Citroen GSA 14 Aug 2017 (News)
  What's more important is that the current keeper has renewed all of the hydraulic components, overhauled the brakes, changed the all-important cambelt, refurbished the petrol tank and carried our repairs to some particularly awkward structural areas, such as the screen surround, A-pillars, headlamp panel and front scuttle. And the best bit? The car has an MoT until November. With 44k on the clock, this Hampshire-based motor will make a great project for the French car enthusiast.

And the British car maker will have a significant presence at this year's London Classic Car Show in February for interested buyers.

  Waterloo Road Star Chooses FIAT 500C 8 Oct 2009 (News)
    WARNING: All owners of FIAT 500 Multijet diesels need to watch out for the dashboard 'oil exhausted' warning light (see pages 94/95 of the drivers manual). This warn is the oil has become degraded from excessive fuel oil and needs to be changed. If the car does a lot of short runs from cold, extra fuel pumped into the engine to create the heat to regenerate the diesel particulate filter may not be combusting and instead finds its way into the sump. If the sump level rises significantly as a result, the engine will start running on its sump oil and, if it cannot be stalled against the brakes, it will over-rev and blow up.

  1982 Brazilian Beetle in Friday's Flipping Bangers 11 Jun 2019 (News)
  The trouble starts as soon as they get it back to base and discover the rot underneath.  More seriously, the pressed steel front suspension has holes in it that will never pass an MoT and, as Will works his way back with his welding torch, the problems only get worse. Gus figures the only way they can get their money back within the 5 days they’ve given themselves for the Internet auction is to smarten it up and sell it as a restoration project.
