We have 59 plate BMW X5 30d m sport and whilst I love the looks the tech Im starting to get a little irritated by quality issues. the wheel arch extensions are now pepperred with stone chips and look awful, the hubs have surface corrosion on and Im not happy about the way the whole thing is...

Driving the Audi back from work this afternoon I was stuck behind a car at a T-junction, he was turning right and me left. Because of his poor positioning I was behind him rather than beside. But there was a small gap so I inched past. SCRAPE. Left front alloy left it's mark on the curb stone...

well, by idiot, I do mean yours truly. So in reality it should read short fat baldy idiot. And as I used a freely available web download for editing there is an access statement imposed over it. never mind.

According to the MIB, quoted in this BBC news item :eek:

Did anyone see the Australian UTE on Top Gear last night - called a Maloo Awesome performace, and if you were being very tax driven about your toys I don't see why this would not by classed as a commercial vehicle for company car tax purposes (it is a pick-up) - saves £6k per annum in personal...

....badly. Driving along the A281 on Saturday and I notice an E55 come right up behind me close trying to over take me and the four cars in front of me. We all slow down so off he goes down the hill. All of a sudden we see the pl0nk3r stand on his brakes as the car literally nose dives...

On the M1 last Saturday, don't think I've ever seen a car driven more aggressively or with less thought for anyone else on the road. Tailgating to within a few inches of the car in front, undertaking at every opportunity and not really getting anywhere in the process. Well done, 'KUNGY' -...

Drove down to Wolverhampton to look at and drive the 52 plate CLK500 and also drove a 51 plate W208 CLK55 on the way back through Cheshire. CLK500 The condition of this car was very much as described previously by Bobby D. I turned up and he gave me the keys and I had a really good look...

.....and driven off. :mad: :mad: She's parked on a road in the car when she gets hit from behind. 2 girls in a Punto - she has the reg no. They drove off apparently with the passenger telling the driver to drive off fast - according to the hand gestures and facial actions etc. Not clear if...

Hi Something on the front of my engine is making rumbling noises. I have taken it to the main dealer and they were a bit vague. They had a look / listen and said that it was probably either the belt tightener or the tightener pulley, but weren't entirely sure. The belt tightener is £125...

Over at Ted's Pistonheads site : http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=16271 Kyle Fortune grapples with the dark side in the latest offering from AMG's Black Series I like the idea of AMG’s Performance Studio. It’s existed in one form or another since AMG started some 40...

I have test driven the following cars in the last week as I am looking to replace my C270 CDI. All of these cars are autos. This may make interesting reading and goes to show it's not all about what "What Car" says. I think a lot of people just read their reviews and have already decied...

I'm looking for advice, abut 10 minutes ago a 4x4 drove int my fence, taking the iron fence out, they've smashed their lights and left their bumper... But they've driven off!! I'm sure they noticed this.... I don't know what to do? r what I can do? I've taken photos of the scene, but...

Check out the melted gear knob.... The leather on the steering wheel has also given up.Normally MB leather lasts well. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=017&item=270015491469&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 adam

Never been a big fan of SLK's but the engine in the new SLK is mighty impressive and like the look of the car, anyone driven one, what are they like to drive, good grip etc?

Thank god for W setting and switching off ESP is all I can say - what a nightmare:eek: was fun though. All came out of the blue - quite literally:D We had no snow forecast at all. Left Leeds where there had been a flurry - hits Harrogate and it's thick blizzards and chaos:rock: :rock:

Hi All, In a moment of drunken stupidity :o at the recent MPH show, I spent an awful lot of money on a track day at Thruxton without really thinking about it too much. Looked good - F430, Murcielago, SLK, RX8, 911 Turbo, etc - 21 laps. What's the track like? Anyone been for one of their...

BMW (sorry) 535d sport? Opinions would be welcome as I have found ANOTHER patch of rust on the boot of my C43. So far its all 4 arches and the boot :( MB Canary Wharf are still waiting for authorisation to repair, so far its been 3 months :crazy: Getting a little bored of waiting to...
