travel

Need some help from those in the know. I'm a permanent member of staff for a UK company. As part of a contract they have with a client, I've done a 7 hour flight out on a Saturday night-Sunday morning, a day of work on a Sunday and then another 7 hour flight back on a Thursday. Hence, I left...

We're off on road trip style holiday, and Junior D plans to keep a scrap book diary to record all of our adventures. I was thinking some kind of blog would enable family and friends to track our progress: some narrative text, abilit to upload photos and maybe some kind of map integration...

Hi guys - the C220CDi Coupe I just bought seems to have quite a bit of pedal travel before the brakes bite. I am also pretty sure that there is some pedal movement when sitting with my foot on the brake. The brakes are working well aside from this, in fact they stop on a button when pressed...

About to book 5 flights to Cyprus, a few days ago i had a discount code saving me £75 but has now expired:mad: & cant seem to find another one to save a few quid! nothing on Monarch's site either, any one know how i can save on the flights (apart from leaving the wife behind:D). TIA

I have recently bought a C180 T reg and the clutch pedal is considerably higher up than the brake pedal. This doesn't seem right to me. Previous cars have had the clutch and brake pedals at the same height. Is this normal or not?

I had to drive the 90 miles down to Heathrow yesterday to collect my niece. I was dreading the journey, especially after all the news items predicting travel chaos. Her plane was due in at 6pm so I had to travel at the time that was expected to be the worst. But everyone seemed to have taken...

We are selling out iCandy Pear travel system. As the photos show, this can be used in one or two seat configuration. It is 15 months old and in excellent condition. The whole kit that we bought comprises: the overall frame/wheel system: this has an extendable handle which is brilliant if...

I have a 2004 viano 2.2 Cdi changed all pads and then noted that although firn brake peel with engine off when running brakes work fine but pedal travels down to floor in a slow gradual way. Changed the brake master cylinder still the same. Read forum where it was suggested this is mercedes...

Hi All, Hope everyone is good! I'll be driving out of central London and my options are either A40 to A406 (the A40 is usally a complete nightmare as it is one lane). OR, I was thinking of taking a detour on the M4 out to the M25. The M25 is slow is but usually about 40mph -...

500,000 miles over 23 years. That is one hell of a road trip! BBC News - Gunther Holtorf's 23-year road trip

My son wants to go to the states for two weeks in August to meet up with his girlfriend who is working out there. Flights are all booked and paid for. Trouble is he has been arrested a few times years ago for minor offences (like drunk and disorderly etc). And therefore the visa waiver program...

I have to travel up to Telford on Saturday from the south east. Could anyone offer advice on roads to avoid etc. its not a journey I make very often so any tips from regular travellers would be appreciated. Cheers Tony

So last year I got a free air ticket when I took out a credit card so used it to spend a couple of days with my camera walking around Amsterdam. It was actually nice to be able to explore the city on foot and to be able to just stop, admire, take a few pictures and then carry on without my...

Being an infrequent visitor to London I'm not sure of the best way to pay for transport. My last visit a couple of years ago cost me a small fortune in tube fares. I didn't prepare anything in advance so just paid £4.10 or so for every tube journey I took. I'm arriving into Heathrow on...

Ive bought a W124 to use over winter. Everything seems ok but what I have noticed is the throttle has waaaaay too much play in it before the car moves.....is the excessive travel a W124 'thing' or can the biting point be easily adjusted somewhere? Thanks

My wife has just bought a 1 year old b class 160 sport auto with 3k miles on - when we drive it we both feel the brake pedal has a lot of travel in it before it really feels that it starts to bite - anyone with a b class feel the same with there cars - is it just a quirk of the car .? :dk:

I am still getting used to the relatively long throttle pedal travel and need to push hard and deep to get a quick kick down from my W203 320 petrol.Perhaps it is a German trait as my partners previous BMW 330 petrol was similar in these respects. It can make the car seem unresponsive at first...
