• VW Golf - Buyer beware-check MOT history 16 Apr 2016 (Forum)
  Following it's second MOT (pass ) in early spring 2014 a third MOT ( pass-) was not carried out until late summer 2015-18 months later. I was suspicious. During this 18 month interval the vehicle only completed 1100 miles. Clearly it was not being used and maybe it had been off the road?. The fourth MOT -once again a pass-was recently done( early 2016-prior to sale) , with a further 10,000 miles having been put on the clock since summer 2015.

• BMW Mini Cooper S R56 - Headlight issue, Xenon Headlight 21 Feb 2020 (Forum)
  Hope " elekie&a/c doctor" is still around giving excellent advice ! I've recently become the owner of a 2007 R56 Cooper S. My third mini and I love it :-) The N/S headlight has a funny quirk. When I switch the headlights on, they both come on and rise to the correct height, as they should do. After a few seconds, the N/S headlight switches off and on a maximum of 3 times a second or so in between and I get a "light alert" come up on the tach and then the flashing headlight stays on and operates perfectly.
