    Nearly hit a badger!

    Driving home last night on the A41, at 60mph came within a metre or two of hitting a badger. He/she/it just ran into the road and thankfully (for all concerned) kept on going. Could have be messy for the badger and us.

    Rear calliper retaining spring

    Car failed its MOT yesterday because the driver’s side rear brake calliper was missing its retaining/anti-rattle spring. The MB technician stated that it must have come out by itself and nothing to do with when they pads last year…. Not come across this myself and am a bit puzzled how an item...

    E10 to be the new standard petrol?

    Greener petrol at UK pumps to target emissions E10 contains less carbon, but fuel economy is worse, so tailpipe CO2 is the same or thereabouts... Not compatible with some (many?) fuel systems. Plus, where does the ethanol come from? Discuss...
