• ANY - RIP DOT3? 10 Aug 2020 (Forum)
  learn, I was quietly confident of getting it at a CPC filling station. 5 big helpings of the M-word from 5 different filling stations later, I’m thinking they’'ve maybe stopped making it. Since its better than DOT-4 (less hygroscopic so longer service and storage life

  to snaffle anything.  It can be a bit of a pain accessing your goodies, because you will inevitably have many items on the seat, a fact which is compounded by the lack of open storage areas on the dash.  Volkswagen have really let themselves down here, this is an 80s dashboard, and entirely

  a low-speed collision. At 60 km/h a smartphone has an effective mass of 60 kgs IIRC. As my Focus is not over-burdened with storage spaces (a later version my colleague drives has a lidded armrest and a hinged flap to the lower console compartment) I have always carried my house keys in my pocket
