I live in a small village in an even smaller cul-de sac which is directly off the main road through the village. There is a man who lives here who parks his volvo on the road, just a few feet after the junction and it's a really tight squeeze to get past him. Anything wider than a standard car...

As title says I purchased a "new" window regulator for my ml from them yesterday. Today I decided to fit it but found to my horror and disgust the part was in a shocking state. Full of grease and even has the ends of rivets still in it. This part has obviously been fitted to a car in the past...

I wasn't sure where to put this, mods please move if there is a more appropriate section. A friend of mine gave me a call today saying that they'd seen my old car on Autotrader. I took a look and found it...and I'm quite amazed at some of the lies in the ad. For example: 1 Owner previous -...

I had my W203 320 delivered to me two weeks ago today, a new MOT was arranged on the day of delivery by the dealer. As the A service was due in 800 miles I asked my local MB specialist to do this and I also wanted him to check it over. He asked me to go down to look at the car as he had found...

Chaps, here's a conundrum for you. I have a strange problem with my stereo which raises it's head every summer and disappears again when the weather cools down. When the car has been left sitting in the sun and gets very hot the speakers go a bit crazy. They switch from side to side, they...
