    I've been searching for an old registration number I or my father had on our cars in the 60/70's. But can't find them listed anywhere on the various sites. Is there anyway of finding these old registrations, even if knowing the vehicle has been scrapped long ago.

  • Driver enraging 18 Aug 2009 (Forum)
    What about this for driver enraging, seen in Bexley, S. London? The sign I'm talking about is "Give way to vehicles from other direction". There was one in one direction, a bus stop, then one for the other direction. It meant that when the bus was stopped the road was completely closed

  • 'Off the wall' bids at auctions. 2 Oct 2007 (Forum)
    The following was taken from HJ's news article on the the Friday 14th car auction, "But either the vendor pushed the auctioneer to run it to an unviable £7,100, or there were simply no bids." Question is, do auctioneers take bids "off the wall" at car auctions to try and get a sale going. s

    Proposals to change the time are estimated to save approx 100 lives a year http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/s/230/230583_move_to_eurotime_would_save_lives.html It looks like it may save more lives than all the camera partnerships put together, but doesn't generate any fines
  • 16 or 17 inch alloys? 1 Nov 2006 (Forum)
    The Megane GT comes with the option of 16'' Kubera or 17'' Jarsalle Alloys. One of the few complaints I have with my current Megane is the fidgety ride as it has 17'' alloys. If I get the 16's will the ride be better? And what about cruising, is this affected? TIA
