I'm fast approaching 40 and I've got this strange urge to buy myself a
nice 2 seater sports car, I'm looking to spend around £4000 and I need
some ideas/suggestions.
I've been looking at Mazda MX-5's and Toyota MR2's which are both nice

Looking to sell the above (its done 62K, FSH, new cam belt), and would
like to know what price I should ask.  Dealer advised me to 'igore the

key (without the remore functions) to move the car.  Now the alarm goes off
every time I start the ignition.  I've tried every combination of remote

Just brought a Passat TDI sport (2002) going to pick it up this
weekend. A few questions:
1. Its done 100k miles. Problem?
2. I have been told diesels don't warm up in the morning if you leave

Hi my BMW wont start when weather gets colder. After a jump start it runs
