| Yet another what car post | 20 Nov 2009 21:38 GMT | 52 |
For my dad.. he reckons this will be his last car purchase.. So, 4 doors, 2-litre petrol (he's in Athens, he can't have a diesel, and anything larger than 2 litres gets *hammered* on tax). Other than that, money no object..

| Tax Band K | 19 Nov 2009 15:34 GMT | 4 |
Band K includes vehicles over 225g/km but registered pre March 2006. Otherwise, these would fall into band L, which costs nearly £200 a year more. Does anyone know whether this concession is due to be phased out? If so, when?

| Ultra low profile tyres for sedate drivers only? | 05 Nov 2009 20:15 GMT | 82 |
I've just got around to watching my recording of the recent Watchdog that talked about ultra-low profile tyres. Seems that the rims are prone to cracking on the UK's roads and that the car manufacturers are loathe to replace them on warranty, tending to reject the claims and blame ...

| Could Fuel Tank Crack When Fitting New Sender? | 07 Apr 2009 17:40 GMT | 1 |
The sender needs replacing in my fuel tank, but because the part has never been changed in 25 years (age of vehicle), I've been told the tank may crack during the process. Would that mean a new tank, or could it be 'patched up'?

Just where the M62 east bound splits into five separate lanes to go west (M62), north(M1), or south(M1) I was in L1 to go north. In L2 to go south and well ahead of me was a little Alpha. Five times he swapped from L1 to L2 and back again with no indications, settling

| Can braided,flexible brake lines replace copper pipe? | 20 Nov 2009 20:52 GMT | 5 |
My van has failed its MOT today on a corroded brake line. It is around 6 foot long, and is rather tortuous in its path, so much so, that I'm not sure if it is possible to replace it without dismantling anything that is bolted on that side of the van.

I've fitted 5mm spacers to my BMW fronts so the inside edges don't rub on extreme full lock (i.e. they only rub if you are holding it hard against the stop and going fast in small circles). I probably could have got away with 3mm spacers but I couldn't be arsed to go round the ...

Are TSI engines any good? Has anyone got a VW or anything with one? I'm just wondering if they can be chipped or tuned to get more hp out of them should you need it e.g. like you can with a TDI? I've just got a 1.6 petrol Megane (115hp) at the moment [dreadful car]

Does anyone know the pinout for the connectors on a "Ford Sound 2000" car radio cassette. I took it from my 1990 Sierra (along with the plugs that went into the wiring loom) when I broke it up and scrapped it recently and want to stick it in my campervan, but can't identify the ...

I've acquired one, an abandoned project to convert to a convertible, along the lines of the common Morris Minor mod. Being a two-door and with a reasonably low body line I think it looks pretty good with (so far) just the roof chopped. Was wondering if anyone knows of such a
