My brothers Escort Gti revs away up and down (as if pressing the
accelerator) without actually doing anything. It also at about 70mph just
dies and loses power until it drops to about 55mph when it then starts to
pick up again.

I have a 1998 2.0l Mondeo which I recently took to the local garage for a
service. Before I took it it was running beautifully, but when I picked it
up it seemed to misfire when running at around 2000 revs in either fourth or
fifth gear. However, it's something it only does now ...

We're in need of a second car that will get daily use, and will be
driven to and from work (about 15 miles each way).  We already have a
C-Max as our family car (2 kids) so the second car can be a little less
sensible....obviously a two seater would be a bit silly as there may be

I have had my share of problems with so called quick fit operations
especially when it comes to wheel balancing,, are any of these chains

I had a guy coming over to pick up my old car and I wrote down his address
on the V5C paperwork.
He now has lost interest in the car and I'm stuck with his address on the
paperwork.

Talking of the control element again.
I wonder how many people here find 100MPH on the rear wheel of a
gsxr1300 safe?
Your thoughts please....

My car has just a small chip where a stone hit it. It's not much bigger than
a big full stop but a mm. or so deep. Is there a product out there that can
be used to fill it so it doesn't get worse and so it won't be intrusive? It
is right in my line of sight.

While travelling on the motorway last night in our 1991 nissan micra I
felt a loss of steering control while overtaking at about 70 mph. I
