  • Citroen Xantia (1993 - 2000) - 96 1.9 Hydraulic leak from r/o/s pipe to caliper 28 May 2009 (Forum)

  • Tesla S - Would you buy this car? 27 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    Anyone seen the new four door Tesla S: http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/03/27/tesla_unveils_model_s/ Looks pretty good to me apart from the 17" touch screen in the dashboard. Don't think I could afford one though! If this car really could have a range of 300 miles on a charge then at some time in the future, we could all be driving proper electric cars.

  • VW Caravelle - Battery 17 Jun 2019 (Forum)
