Yup. Just you. :D

In 23 years of driving to and from Spain mostly through France in different cars every time at an average at one point of 1.5 trips per week, I was never stopped to have a document check. Couple of times for speeding, yeah, but document check, never.

The reason the VED might matter abroad is because it gives them an idea if the car has been in the country over the prescribed legal limit which is a maximum of 6 months in any one year. If the VED is not paid, there is a very good chance the car does not have a valid MOT, which means the car...

If it makes you feel better, these t*rds are built in Speke, and the quality is that bad on them there is a separate shift on the weekends to rectify the faults and other quality control issues. At one point they had around 1200 cars stacked up with nowhere to go because the parts were not...

Just looked on my drive and there is an SLK with the reg. F177TTY :D

Did you buy on credit card, because if you did you are protected by the cca (Consumer credit act) and can claim a refund through Section 75. The wheels are obviously not of merchantable quality, so why should you accept the damage?

Currently got a '99 9-3 Cabrio with the red top engine parked on the drive looking for a new home. Amazing how many people think they have big balls by bidding for the car and then suddenly realising they are hung like a squirrel when I accept the offer. :wallbash:

The ad is bordering on trade descriptions, because it is illegal for a dealer to sell a car for a better price for cash, than for finance. At the end of the day it isn't what you get for your part exchange, it's the price you actually pay to change your car which is the most important figure...

Thanks for the pithy reply, but I repeat, "the service department brought up the price paid?" They didn't mention price, so why prime him for a row on it? Could you be any more condescending btw? My guess is yes, but you just haven't realised your true potential yet.

Its all about establishing and maintaining the "Revenue stream" God I hate that phrase, but not as much as I hate being regarded as an open wallet for every company under the sun. :mad::mad:

All Fords have that system. You turn the lights off and then back on, the fogs go off and stay off.

There must be an override, because I've seen many a plum bombing down the M6 with rear fogs ablaze. :dk:

I only do that when the **** in front of me has his rear foglights on. I am a keen disciple of what Clarkson said many (many) years ago regarding foglights, which was that if anyone turned their foglights on their car should immediately be restricted to a maximum speed of 30mph, because that is...

Probably because when a car is first registered, it takes about a week for the Experian databases to update so most time the insurers have to manually input the details, so they would have been none the wiser. Only at renewal time would it have come to light. Sounds like the dealer fitted the...

Just wondering where it states in the post that the service department brought up the price paid? Don't really see the point in priming him to have a row about something that is very unlikely to happen. :dk: By the way, I have spent over 30 years in retail and never heard the phrase "moaning...

Why not just pay for 6 months on each? :confused:
