I drove a current model Caprice (whatever the Caprice equivalent for the VE
Commodore is - W?) for the first time just recently, and I discovered an
annoying limitation with the passenger-side mirror - I could not position it
so that I could see the rear wheel. I'm a chauffeur ...

I was just informed that Pacific Internet is shutting down its News server
on the 16th of  this month. I for one, rely on these groups to get (and
share) information, opinions etc. and feel it is a retrograde step to shut
us off. Anyway, if you are a Pacific customer and feel the ...

Anyone know how I can get in touch with him?

"All of our efforts are going into Falcon," said Ford chief Tom Gorman.

I drive with manual transmission and want to drive as fuel efficiently
as possible. I am told by my brother that while driving I should
maintain about 2000 rpms at all times as this is optimal. In 3rd gear

strange readings recently.  Each time I refuel I reset the trip computer
(hold button down for more than two seconds - two beeps).

My partner owns a 96 Ford Festiva with a 1.3L motor and 240,000k's on
it.  I have been doing my best to look after it and it's now looking and
running pretty shmick.  The only problem with it now is it's using a

Reminds me of that episode of itchy and scratch where itchy and scratchy
start producing bigger and bigger weapons until they have something the size
of the earth. Except these guys are not cartoon characters....

You're turning right into a side st for a while but traffic is heavy and
you've been waiting a while. The street has a set of lights which you can
turn on either general green or green arrow. There is a small gap in the
traffic which will require 'prompt' manoeuvre to turn in ...
