  My daughter has just taken delivery of an Audi A1 1.4 S  TFSI  S Line on the NHS lease scheme and as I went out for a little test drive, I wondered how we could tell if the engine was a 150 BHP or the lesser 125 BHP. Now, the 150 which she ordered has the cylinder on demand

• Crazy motorway driving 24 Nov 2008 (Forum)
  there are 3 lanes I overtake Polo and then pull into N/S lane. Only doing 60mph. Polo about 55. Watched her in my mirror. Motorway is a series of long bends. On LH bends she pulls into N/S lane. On right hand bends she pulls out and occupies the third (O/S, overtaking) lane. Fascinated I slowed a little
• Are 4X4's bad designs? 29 Nov 2006 (Forum)
  Its just something that Ive noticed as I clean alot of the prestige 4X4's. They seem so cramped inside and the bootspace just doesnt seem in proportion with the size of the cars, nor does the interior space. The amount of plastic trim in the boot of most of them seems to knock a third off
• Japanese imports - to be avoided? 19 Sep 2003 (Forum)
  After much deliberation I?ve decided on the car I want ? a Honda Prelude 2.2.VTEC (that?s the ?old? shape, i.e. ?92 ??96), but I?m struggling to find the car I want. I?m wondering about the cars that are Japanese imports, and whether or not they?re too good to be true. You certainly seem to get
• Pathetic! 11 Mar 2003 (Forum)
  I was parked in South West London yesterday afternoon. All perfectly legal, inside a parking bay, displaying a vistor\'s permit, etc. When I got back some moron had parked his Volvo S80 with the front number plate touching mine, and on double yellow lines, and on a speed hump, and facing the wrong

• Jaguar S-Type - Jaguar S-Type - ownership nightmare? 17 Aug 2012 (Forum)
  Hi all I've seen a Jag S-Type locally at a very tempting price - 51 reg with 131k on the clock, being offered by a dealer who I'm guessing probably doesn't want it on the forecourt and needs to get rid. It's the 3.0 V6 auto version. I've always quite fancied one... however, although HJ

  Water? Soft or hard... Or that catch all `fluid`.. Pink or blue? There generally has to be a colour of course to give `confidence` that it`s not plain water. Even though that leaves an opaque coating on the screen round the edge of the wiped area. I had a recent dream (time shift induced

  You know the stuff. On sale at a large retailer near you. Toilet flush blue is OK to minus 5c and antelope liver red, down to minus 7. Of course the colour in the mix doesn`t just de-materialise, it leaves a scum on the screen, outside the wipers arc. Given that this stuff is ready mixed. What`s
• Milked at dawn - `bring it in at 8.30 sir`... 25 Feb 2009 (Forum)
