"H" Reg, 15 yr old Micra.  Passed MOT first go!  All I did before hand was
fit new shoes and pads.  What a top little car.  Not bad considering I
bought it 18 months ago for £50 with 39,000 miles on it.

1.6 laguna
The fan has been tested and is working , the thermostat
has been tested and is working , but puttting the two of them
together ..nothing ..before I splash out on a auto electrician

Is it true it costs money to scrap a car?
When my cavalier failed it's MOT, the garage helpfully said they would scrap
it for their reduced rate of ?25 cos they get trade discount.
I give them ?25, they weld it up, then sell it for ?300 more like.

Are they any good? My Corsa needs is due a service and an MOT soon and
there's a Nationwide Autocentre at the Halfords near my work. Normally
I'd just take it to a local garage, but I'm new to the area, live in
Hudds and work in Leeds so this is very convenient for me.

a request for help from anyone who's had/dealt with this problem
before.
Car is Ford Fiesta Quartz 1.1 (1995).
Both driver and passenger door locks not unlocking when using the key,

I'm looking for an older Micra (the last shape, rounded model) worth
about £500-£700ish. Are there any problems common to this car, that I
should be aware of? I'd like to know what to look for.
Thanks.

My cluth release bearing went on my 95 cavalier yesterday. OK, the
car's 10 years old, but in good nick, but even as a top range CDX only
worth around £500-£600.
So I start the usual ring round for a price, and all say they will ahve

My Pegueot 306 1997 "R" reg has started doing something weird. When I
depress the clutch pedal the brake lights (left, right, and middle) flick on
and then off.
At first I thought maybe a bit of debris was trapped between the clutch

Does anyone have a spark plug book available?
I need to know the equivalent of an NGK BPR6ES, but 10mm instead of 14mm.
One of those letters must be the code for the size, no?
TIA

I have a friend who has welding gear, a lathe, and many many tools in his
garage (No room for car or bike, only the pushbike!). Slight overkill
perhaps, but he swears by it.
What do you consider essential to have in the garage?

Some of you might have read this already. Sunday times 25/9 compared two
Citroen C1, one 1.4HDi and one 1.0i . Both cars were driven in convoy one
lap around M25. The fuel consumption over the 116 miles were:
1.4HDi 82.7mpg

hi 2 all,
just had the header tank replaced on my S type 3 litre, and got charged
£295.  Is that fair price?

Well, sort of an advert anyway. If youve got ten seconds spare, please
follow the link below and submit any questions you might have. I posted it
here before and got plenty of page views but hardly any questions ;o)

I'm on the lookout for a newer car, and regularly come across 'computer'
listed in the spec/description, is this likely to be cruise control, or
something else?
Thanks

I have a 99 Laguna 1.9 dTI for work which I'll probably replace at the end
of next year as it draws closer to 200000 miles.
I travel 70+miles a day on the motorway, then the car is taken by the wife
across town to her job.
