    It's time...I need a little help...

    Hosepipe ban here - spending a fortune on waterless wash. Oh, and Silestanix, go for the E-Class.

    Opinions Please!

    Call me old fashioned, and this is just my personal opinion, but... mods are wrong. Far more classy to buy the car you want and keep it looking cleaner than when it left the showroom.

    Speed Cameras, the twisted truth

    Just out of curiosity, do fixed speed cameras in the UK have warning signs on approach? Over here, fixed speed cameras require 3 warnings signs to approaching drivers; Speed Camera 24 Hours Speed Camera Ahead Heavy Fines Loss Of LicenceMy understanding is that if one of these signs is...

    4x4s are ideal for towns actually

    I could, I suppose, but I've got a reversing camera and I'd hate to have to watch the ensuing carnage.

    4x4s are ideal for towns actually

    I own an all-wheel-drive 7 seater. Mine doesn't have bull-bars fitted, but if you were to listen to, and take notice of, the talk-back radio stations you would be forgiven in believing that everytime I go near a school I'm likely to reverse over a gaggle of small children.

    What constitute a bad driver

    Sorry if I'm going off-topic, but down here holiday periods are considered double demerit periods. For example, a speeding offence committed during a holiday period counts as double points on your license. I was caught speeding at Easter driving up to Coffs Harbour from Sydney (5 hour drive each...

    What constitute a bad driver

    No worries. And what's rugby? It's the cricket season now. Here's one for you. I can be sitting at a set of traffic lights, set to red, waiting to turn left. The lights can change to green allowing me to turn left but pedestrians waiting to cross the street I intend turning left into will also...

    What constitute a bad driver

    John, I was simply trying to think of an example of legal bad driving in response to your comment: "I cannot think of any circumstance of bad driving that is fully within our motoring laws and would respectfully ask you offer an example of legal bad driving." My reference to "my" and "your"...

    What constitute a bad driver

    My country or your country? To be honest, I'm happy to demonstrate a lack of knowledge in either. So what about a bad-parker parking their car lawfully on an adopted, public road using an authorised, designated parking bay during an allocated, authorised period? Is that an example of bad...

    What constitute a bad driver

    What about someone with very poor parking skills who attempts to parallel-park in a space that's too small for them and, in so doing, holds up traffic long enough to cause other road users to risk dangerous manoeuvres to pass. Technically, I think the bad parker is driving legally and is not...

    Should I buy a 2000 E class

    There's no rust on my E Class. Mind you, it doesn't rain here much. The last time I saw rain I was so shocked that someone had to throw a cup of dust in my face to calm me down.

    Confessional / Bad behaviour...

    Had the brick hit one of the occupants on the head and killed them, "tmienterprises" would be posting from a prison cell. I'm all for making a stand against unsociable behaviour, but I wouldn't want to end up in prison over a milkshake.
