Hyundai ix35 - ix35 ugly dash trim 28 Jan 2012 (Forum)
I would like to buy an ix35 but I hate the shiny silver trim on the dash and steering wheel. It looks like it belongs on a 1970s Hong Kong radio. Is there a kit to replace the trim with something more subtle or can it be wrapped or painted? -

What is the point of Formula One? 19 May 2009 (Forum)
I have just listened to a programme on BBC Radio 4 presented by Quentin Letts (who he?). It was asking in a tongue-in-cheek style 'What is F1 for', quite interesting and amusing and it is repeated tonight, Tuesday, at 9.30pm - I think. Remind me someone - what is Formula One for? -
VED - Failure to display 1 Feb 2009 (Forum)
Has the offence now ceased to exist? The latest radio advert for the DVLA on line service has words to the effect of " if you apply on line you can continue to drive with no risk pending arrival of disc". Has this legitimised the old practice "Tax in the post" assuming that have actually -

Highways Agency Presence 1 Aug 2005 (Forum)
Item on the radio this morning that Highways Agency presence is to spread from midlands to M25 and that they are improving driving behaviour. Ironic as I passed a Highways Agency Shogun on the M6 yesterday morning near Walsall, 65mph in the middle lane, inside lane empty - the boys were setting -

Falling over lorries 3 Jul 2004 (Forum)
I keep hearing traffic reports on the radio which refer to a jam being caused by an 'overturned lorry'. There's at least one a day. Why do they overturn with such alacrity? Are they loaded badly so that they are top heavy or do the drivers corner at lunatic speeds? I think we should be told. -

Golf II aerial cable 21 Mar 2006 (Forum)
Hi folks, I've just bought a 1990 Golf II which needs a couple of things doing to it, but overall a nice car. First problem which is turning out harder than expected is the radio aerial. The previous owner replaced a broken aerial but didn't pull a piece of string through on the end of the cable
