Friends now reunited 8 Jun 2010 (Forum)
Funny thing about memories of childhood, sometimes they have great clarity, in particular when your family moved out of the area and those memories and times seem frozen, like the proverbial fly trapped in pre-historic amber. Not that it`s THAT long ago - though it`over 60 yrs since we -

Renault Twingo - Arnold Clarke will not do body warranty inspection 16 Oct 2020 (Forum)
Bought our Renault Twingo Dynamique S brand new via my son who worked as a salesman at AC Renault. It's a MY 2016 but registered late 2015. Due to retirement and latterly the 'lockdown' it has only done 792 miles since its last annual service in November 2019. Total mileage is now 12807 so -

n/a - Essentials of good service. 29 Jul 2020 (Forum)
engineering consultancy run by lots of degree level business advisors with MBA's? The truth is rather humbling. It's in the foreword to the Ford Model T service manual published by Ford Detroit. It's not dated but is probably printed around the 1920's - a hundred years ago! If you -
Ford Focus Mk2, 2007 1.6. - Recommendations, please. 7 Nov 2016 (Forum)
insurance costs, low tax and a reasonable reputation for reliability. I'd like to avoid "pig ugly" too, if possible. I've looked at newish Fiestas but the 1.6 Zetec S, which is the model from that range which I'd want purely for the power, is just too expensive and most of the good examples -
Mercedes E320 - Ford or Mercedes 5 Nov 2016 (Forum)
a 52 reg S class which has just gone through a service without one additional penny being spent on it. I've heard the argument that an 8 year old £50k car may be cheap to buy but still has the running costs of a £50k car but I must admit his point of view seems to have a lot of merit. He's got me -
Ford Fiesta (1995 - 1999) - 1997 1.3 idle and drive issues 16 Feb 2009 (Forum)
intermittent. The stutter causes the car to lose acceleration and power, such like if the turbo was broken on a diesel. Increasing the throttle only causes the stutter to get worse; eventually the power does come back. Or I have to put the car into neutral and use full throttle until full revs come back. It?s -
DMF's and the van connection 14 Jul 2008 (Forum)
falling apart all over the place with disgruntled owners jumping up and down and shouting from the rooftops. I drove transits back in the 70's, they used the V4 petrol which in its high compression form in the Ford cars would blow a head gasket very often, but in LC form as fitted to transit would last -

Unsprung Weight theory 12 Apr 2004 (Forum)
. It had a lightweight fibreglass body mounted on a 1930's Ford 8 chassis and suspension. The suspension comprised two transverse leaf springs, one front and one rear, and it had feeble lever-type dampers. The springs each had seven leaves which made them too stiff for this now-lightweight car so I took -
