• stealth car (not) seen this morning 19 Nov 2004 (Forum)
  Actually it was a metallic mud coloured Lotus Elise but here's a thought. We were driving into bright low sunlight with deep shadows. All I could see of it was the rear numberplate reflected in my headlights. If I hadn't had my lights on, I may not have seen him until his brake lights came

  Rover 420 SLDi. I had the coolant and brake fluid replaced yesterday for £37.50. ATS carried out the work. Their staff proved friendly and helpful. Well recommended. Two weeks ago they replaced the engine oil and filter, using Helix 10/40 & a Cooper filter for £22.99. All in a good place to use

• Tesla Model S etc - Electric Car Towing 26 Jul 2021 (Forum)
  Just wondered if anyone has experience with towing with electric cars. Only a few seem capable and I think you have to turn off the energy recovery under braking?  Wondering if it’s worth even considering if range Is reduced too much, although I wouldn’t want to tow much more

  For the past few weeks I've been hearing a clunking noise when I stop the car either downhill or uphill, as if the weight of the car shifts in the opposite direction before it comes to rest. I never hear it when stopping on a level surface, and I don't hear it when otherwise braking, except when
