Toyota Previa (1990 - 2000) - Electrical problems - 1990 2.4 petrol 22 Oct 2007 (Forum)
Not my week for electrics. Previa was fine yesterday but today I noticed the central locking didn't work, further investigation showed the radio, interior lights and ciggy lighter all don't work. Checked all the fuses and they're ok - relay somewhere perhaps? -
daft things you do in the car 23 Aug 2006 (Forum)
I think it was one of the Radio 1 DJ's that had a slot that included the silly things you did in the car. For example, there was one chap that wouldn't allow himself to breathe when he drove through the Blackwall Tunnel & got quite ratty if he was foiled. I know i've got some..anyone else? -
Saab/Volvo/Nissan, Less reliable? 27 Apr 2006 (Forum)

We all know that common sense disappeared for many years ago and most seem to have the attention span of a goldfish. However I was totally staggered this morning. Hertfordshire has its first dusting of snow in a while. Then on local radio we get reports of numerous minor accidents -
