• Skoda Fabia SE - Emissions and road tax 16 Feb 2024 (Forum)
  I own the above Skoda model registered in 2014. It has a 3-cylinder 1198cc engine. A friend of mine owns a 2014 Nissan Note Acenta Premium DIG-S which also has a 3-cylinder 1198cc engine. Because his emits only 99g/Km it falls into band A and he pays no road tax. My car produces 128g/Km (band D
• £8k to spend - Looking for a Diesel Saloon/Hatch 5 Jan 2024 (Forum)
  a good option but naturally I'm seeing A4's, Golf's, Octavia's etc. I appreciate for that I'm looking at something around 10 years old too.   What's everyone's personal opinion? I'm swaying toward a 3 series but having never owned one (Always had VAG group Vehicles) I'd appreciate any

• Why the obsession with 'Line' 13 Dec 2021 (Forum)
  Seems to me that a huge proportion of new cars have trim levels called something Line. Just off the top of my head I've seen S-Line, ST-Line, R-Line and N-Line. Why 'Line'?, what is is for?. When I think of the word line, the first thing that comes into my head is doing lines at school
• Astra K - Intermittent Central Locking 8 Nov 2021 (Forum)
  N/S/R central locking intermittently won't unlock either from the key or the switch on the drivers door. Works fine using the interior door handle.  So today I removed the door card to have a look. Nothing obviously wrong. There are five wires going to the lock. I'm guessing earth

• Trailer - Do I need operators licence to tow trailer ? 13 Nov 2020 (Forum)
  an operators licence just to tow this trailer, not only that but need to upgrade my licence, that;s not so bad, but to have an operators licence you need an operators centre of operations!  No wonder so many drive inadequate luton vans! These vans only take 1 tonne max, they are rubbish.
• Peugeot 208 - Any experience of new Peugeot 208? 9 Aug 2020 (Forum)
  it (again in an older model guise) 44th for reliability and bottom for gearbo. So my question is, is there any reason to expect that the new one isn't quite so s***e? Or would you expect more of the same? Any actual owners on here who can vouch for it? Many thanks in advance!

  What to buy? My wife has been a big Honda loyalist for years - three Shuttles and then a Stream, but now that's beyond economic repair. We really like the engines and reliability. The options for our rather niche requirements seem to be Toyota Verso or possibly a Ford S-Max. (I am

• Has "the other" motoring site ground to a halt? 12 Jan 2020 (Forum)
  with such limited comings and goings. One or two of them started up a breakaway  forum acouple of years ago - called something like Grumpy old f***s Village Pub ... but that didn't seem to thrive and it seemed as though the members of that one crept back from whence they came. I've no idea what
• 2006 Audi A6 saloon tdi - water leak 2 Jan 2020 (Forum)
  awkward to get at. Earlier A6's had problems with water under blocked drain plugs that were under the battery but that is not so with my audi as the battery is in the boot. I do not have a sun roof. Any suggestions where the water could be getting in would be much appreciated
