Please help, I picked up a x reg vito 110cdi thursday. On the way back I made the mistake of playing with the switches. I pressed the central locking one, now every time I open the doors the van beeps at me. Only the front doors and it doesn't happen when the ignition is on. It's driving me mad...

B class now sorted for the Mrs, but am having a dilemma for my next carriage. Having driven and liked (a lot) an E320cdi Sport (harsh ride!?!.....nooo, try an RX8 !!) and decided to get one and chip it for a little more oomph, the E63AMG's have now caught my eye. As a previous e39M5 owner...

Hello chaps (and any chapettes!). I've always liked the BMW M3 (e46 shape - 2000 to 2006. I once accompanied some mates to the Nurburgring in Germany. We took a standard M3, an M3 CS and an M3 CSL. I simply fell in love with the CSL, mostly for the amazing noise it makes. It's a level above a...

Would I be insane entertaining this idea? Estate A/garde 2 owners £1k'ish The box must be thinking of giving up soon - or perhaps that it hasn't mean it'll go forever.... Thoughts?

Party chat gets round to winter/snow driving, and my smug, ultra-sensible, VW-driving neighbour launches into his favourite jibe: "Surely, EVERYBODY knows that NO-ONE with any sense will buy a Mercedes or BMW"...Smurk, smurk... I'll swing for this guy if he makes this very pointed comment...
