• Focus for Accord 21 Feb 2002 (Forum)
  Well I'm still in the process of finding the right used Accord to trade in my Focus for, and managed to find a suitable candidate at a Honda dealer:- '98-S Accord 2.0ES Auto black 38k 1-owner £9995 Got a part-ex valuation from said dealer for my current steed:- '99-V Focus 2.0 Ghia 5-dr black
• Golf Mk 3 keys 4 Feb 2002 (Forum)
  VW Germany. FAx comes back with the order code for the key. The dealer then orders the key. Once it has arrived they require the car for another 1/2 day to "progamme" the key(s). So, 2 visits (mon to fri only of course) and a bill of £40 for the key plus 1/2 hr labour for programming. The service
• pug 206 woes 27 Jan 2002 (Forum)
  A girly friend of mine has a Met blue 98 S Pug 206 LX 3dr with air. She over-expended herself to buy the thing and can't really afford to run it. So now it is playing up bad (out of warranty in July) and she can't afford to fix it. A mechanic friend has looked at it and he says it is only running
• Installing stereo system from scratch 22 Jan 2002 (Forum)
  /connectors I need to do this. I am ready to buy a CD tuner head unit, two 4" cones, and two 6x9's (to be put in a box in the boot), I can understand the basic principals in doing all of this but I just want to find out if there is anything in particular I really need to watch for or do. I KNOW that this can
• Honda Civic or similar 7 Jan 2002 (Forum)
  Civic (1.5 L VTEC engine) at our local Honda dealer. It's high mileage at 73K, but has been regualarly dealer serviced every 12,000 miles. Apart from some very minor damage at the n/s rear corner, it looks OK. It's priced at about £4,900 and we're planning a test drive tomorrow. Overall
• Type R...? 12 Nov 2001 (Forum)
  in March. They even said to shop around for a discount and they'd match it, so discounts can be had!! I test drove the Scooby WRX (with ppp) and there's sod all in it performance wise. Just 8k in my pocket....... :-) There's no other alternative is there? Cooper S maybe... Never bought a new car before so
• Toyota Picnic value 15 Oct 2001 (Forum)
  Anyone got access to a "Trade Bible" Glass's guide? I am looking to buy my Picnic from Leaseplan but I get the feeling they over value the cars compared to what a dealer would charge for one, or what it would fetch at auction. It is a Jan 98 S plate GLS Auto with CD 2.0 petrol, Met paint, 60K
• Aftermarket Turbo Bits 21 Jun 2001 (Forum)
  a Fiesta bonnet, then it will fit the kit. Will it achieve the same surge as my XUDT after the surgery, or be several 100's down the pan? I have seen adverts for such modifications but am sceptical to their effect. Anyone any comments? Simon
• Audi A6 - any comments? 31 May 2001 (Forum)
  including long continental trips. To be honest, the favourite is a Saab 9-5 3.0TiD estate (I can wait!), but on paper the A6's credentials look good.
• Fiesta Cylinder Head 6 May 2001 (Forum)
  Hi , My wife`s 1986D Fiesta 1.1 looks as though the Head Gasket has blown , so I`ve got to remove the cylinder head. I can do this either by removing the manifold from the head ( 6 x rusted nuts) OR by undoing the 2 rusted nuts securing the exhaust to the manifold , and removing the head complete
• Just for fun II 1 Mar 2020 (Forum)
  not Honda, Mazda or Toyota, though I do rate much of what Mazda in particular have done over the years. They’ve a real passion for cars with the sweet Mk I MX5, storming final RX7 Turbo and quirky Xedos from the late 80’s into the 90’s and the later post Ford era range, all of which are a pleasure to own
• Citroen Xsara Picasso (2000 - 2010) - 04 1.6 Hdi Non-starter P0087, P1113, P1351 19 Nov 2012 (Forum)
  Please help me. I recently bought Picasso with 147,000 miles and it has a Bosch EDC16C3 ECU. While in Somerset the engine died, and the MIL was on. A local garage diagnosed dirty diesel, cleaned the tank, replaced the filter and switched off the MIL. I filled the tank at Morrison?s in Glastonbury
• Audi TT Coupe - Faulty car just after few days... 19 Dec 2010 (Forum)
  Also, the title's car ad said : "2001 AUDI TT QUATTRO 225 BHP COUPE S LINE BLACK", but the car is not an S-Line it's an Audi TT Quattro 225 BHP only. The S-Line add few features. To resume the problems are : - Tyres with 0 mm thread. So the car is unroadworthy isn't it ? - Turbo
• Big cars: further to fall? And what would YOU do? 22 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  one of the few to have an eye on Volvo?s perky little C30. But now the S60 seems to be costing me more than I?d expected. I hadn?t appreciated how far big car values have fallen ? curious in this case, since the S60 does 48mpg and my last VED disc cost just £160. And it?s starting to want parts
• Alfa Brera - I've finally driven one 1 May 2007 (Forum)
  as gorgeous as the Ferrari red one I kicked the tyres on at an Alfa Dealer about a year ago. I think it?s great that Alfa put what was basically a concept car into production. I unlocked the door and climbed in. The seats are covered in highly attractive black and grey and nice smelling leather and, after
• Fiat Doblo roadtest - V.long!!!!!!!!!! 9 Nov 2006 (Forum)
  this a little firmer that I am acustumed to, but that?s French cars for you. I just changed the tyres on my clio and from my home pressure gauge I pumped them to about 32-34 PSI. After getting the tyres changed I thought the ride changed a little. I then went to the garage and the pressure gauge read 27 PSI
• Not yet sure - New Purchase 10 Mar 2021 (Forum)
  as my Nismo RS does about 33MPG on a good day! I have three options currently with I'd say up to £18,000 to play around with.  Option one is a 2014 onwards Audi Q5, 2 litre diesel S-Line plus.  Option two is a 2014 onwards BMW X3 likely 20D M sport. Option

• C3 Civic - Citroën vs Honda – a foregone conclusion? 5 May 2014 (Forum)
  with no rattles or squeaks, the Honda has a few knocks on both the front and rear suspension over speed humps and the ride is very jiggly –as it always has been (2-0.) Fixtures and fittings: There’s nothing at all wrong with the C3’s interior, the Civic’s driver’s side window keep
