I have holidayed in France every year for the last 11 years and never once changed the headlights over. Not even used tape. I actually get more grief off UK drivers when I am using my Dutch registered LHD truck here in the UK then when using my car in Europe.

A few years back when wifey did her two yearly change of car, she went on the DVLA site and bought a plate for £200. She was getting her 7th MX5 and she got MX54 CAL(MX5 4 CAL), which included her initials. She subsequently PX'd it at LR next to Ascot racecourse so if anyone sees it around that...

Thanks for info

I would suggest that as you seem to be doing this purely as a favour to your dear old Dad, then get the car roadworthy and then see if there is any member of the family that wants it and ask them for what you have paid out. That would cheer your Dad up and keep the car 'in the family'. I...

Believe me, it's not only MB that try to scam. I took my wife's Freelander in for a full service to LR. This was at her insistence despite usually using an independent. I told her it would cost upwards of £600 but she was positive. They collected and delivered the car back and luckily, just for...

I have finally swapped my Rangey after 6 years off trouble free motoring and this weekend got myself a 2001 ML270 CDI. Looks the muttz nuttz in bright silver, very black rear windows and tinted front ones ( a regular pimpmobile ) and AMG wheels with what looks like 20" tyres. It also has a huge...
